I am not getting the answer. If we use another method by finding avg. of speed
ie. 21+24=45/2=22.5x10=225
& even we calculate separately
ie. 5x21 = 105
5x24 = 120
Then 105+120=225
I am confused pls explain
ie. 21+24=45/2=22.5x10=225
& even we calculate separately
ie. 5x21 = 105
5x24 = 120
Then 105+120=225
I am confused pls explain
