A farmer travelled a distance of 61 km in 9 hours. He travelled partly on foot @ 4 km/hr and partly on bicycle @ 9 km/hr. The distance travelled on foot is:

A. 14 km B. 15 km
C. 16 km D. 17 km
Answer and Explanation
Answer: Option C
Explanation: Let the distance travelled on foot be x km.

Then, distance travelled on bicycle = (61 -x) km.

So, x/4 + (61 -x)/9 = 9

9x + 4(61 -x) = 9 x 36

5x = 80

x = 16 km.
