If a person walks at 14 km/hr instead of 10 km/hr, he would have walked 20 km more. The actual distance travelled by him is-

A 50 km

B 56 km

C 70 km

D 80 km

Solution

Correct Answer: Option A

Let the actual distance travelled be x km
Then, extra distance is x+20
According to questions,
x/10=(x+20)/14
⇒14x = 10x+200
⇒4x=200
⇒x=200/4
∴ x=50 km
