STEP-BY-STEP
We have the speed of horse = 22 kmph
And it ran for 6 hours.
Hence distance covered by it in 6 hours = 22 * 6
= 132 km
We know that dog has covered the same distance in 6 + 2 = 8 hours.
Hence speed of the dog = 132 / 8
= 16.5 kmph
And it ran for 6 hours.
Hence distance covered by it in 6 hours = 22 * 6
= 132 km
We know that dog has covered the same distance in 6 + 2 = 8 hours.
Hence speed of the dog = 132 / 8
= 16.5 kmph
