Average speed of cyclist = x
average speed of car = 3x
x = 225/5
x = 45km/h
3x = 3(45)
3x = 135km/h
average speed of cyclist = 45km/h
average speed of car = 135km/h
Let Xavier's favourite fraction be a/b, Yessie's favourite fraction = b/a and Zorro's favourite fraction = c/d,
c/d x a/b = 12/35 . . . . . . . . (1)
c/d x b/a = 15/7 . . . . . . . . (2)
(1) x (2) = c/d x a/b x c/d x b/a = 12/35 x 15/7
c^2 / d^2 = 36/49
c^2 = 36
c = 6
d^2 = 49
d = 7
Xaviers favourite fraction = 12/35 / 6/7 = 2/5
Yessies favourite fraction = 5/2
Zorro favourite fraction = 6/7
