There is a road beside a river. Two friends started from a place A moved to a temple situated at another place B and then returned to A again. One of them moves on a cycle at a speed of 12 km/hr, while the other sails at a speed of 10km/hr. If the river flows at a speed of 4km/hr, which of the two friends will return to place A first.

  • 1]

    7.4 km/h

  • 2]

    8.4 km/h
