Question 962886
The ratio between the rates of walking of A and B is 2:3,
 if the time taken by B to cover a certain distance is 36 minutes, the time in minutes taken by A to cover that much distance in minutes is?
:
let t = time required by A
Time is inversely related to walking rate, therefore
{{{t/36}}} + {{{3/2}}}
cross multiply
2t = 3*36
t = 108/2
t = 54 min for A to cover the distance
