From two places, 60 km apart A and B start towards each other at the same time and meet each other after 6 hours. If A traveled with \(\frac{2}{3}\) of his usual speed and B traveled with double his speed they would have met after 5 hours. The speed of A is :

• 1] 4 km/hr
• 2] 6 km/hr
• 3] 10 km/hr
• 4] 12 km/hr
