Read Solution (10) :

shubhadip  (10 years ago)

avg speed=2*3*6/(3+6)=4
so speed of man=4km/hr
distance=4*6=24km
since we want one way distance it will be
24/2 =12

Prosenjit bar  (10 years ago)

let distance of ground level is g and for hill level is h .
now, (s/4)+(h/3)+(s/4)+(h/6)=(9-3)
=> s+h=12 ....so ans is 12km

My answer :-
Given man has started at 3pm and reached home at 9 pm : diff is 6 hrs

4km/hr on level ground :- (4km - 1hr)
3km/hr on uphill [ given,downhill 6km/hr,therefore] : [6km - 2hr]
6km/hr downhill : [6km : 1hr]
remaining 2 hrs
4km/hr on level ground : [ 2hr : 8km]

Therefore Ans is 24

I think LCM of 4,3,6,4= 12 km/hr..
12*6= 72km...

Akash Verma  (9 years ago)

let the distance be equal=d for each part, then
d/4/4+d/4/6+d/4/3+d/4/4=9-3
d/8+d/24/+d/12=6
6*d=6*24
d=24(for whole journey)
for one way (24/2=12Kms)
