How to solve such time related questions?
The key concept for solving such questions is the relationship between speed, distance and time.
The relationship between them is Distance = Speed x Time
Given:-
Total time taken by girl to complete the trip = 15 minutes = hours
Speed while riding going = 6 miles per hour
Speed while coming back = 4 miles per hour
Total time taken by girl =
Time taken while going + Time taken while coming back - (1)
Let x be distance from home to store
= Time taken while going
= Time taken while coming back
Substituting in (1) we get
x = 0.6 miles
Thus home is 0.6 miles away from the store
