A farmer travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot @ 4 km/hr and partly on bicycle @ 9 km/hr. The distance travelled on foot is:

Correct Answer: 16 km

Explanation:

Let the distance travelled on foot be x km.


Then, distance travelled on bicycle = (61 -x) km.



So, x + (61 -x) = 9
4 9


⟹ 9x + 4(61 -x) = 9 x 36


⟹ 5x = 80


x = 16 km.
