a start walking from a place at a uniform speed of 3 kmph in a particular direction . after half an hour , b starts from the same place and walks in the same direction as a at a uniform speed and overtakes a after 1 hour 48 minutes . find the speed of b .
"distance covered by a in 30 min = 1 km b covers extra 1 km in 1 hour 48 minutes ( 9 / 5 hr ) i . e . relative speed of b over a = 1 / ( 9 / 5 ) = 5 / 9 so the speed of b = speed of a + 5 / 9 = 3 + 5 / 9 = 3.55 answer b"
add(divide(1, divide(add(const_60, 48), const_60)), 3)
