PROBLEM: Oliver can run 4 times as fast as he can walk. One day he walked for 3 hours and ran for 2 hours. If he covered a total of 55 Kms, how fast did he walk?

Let the speed he walked at be x Km/h The distance he ran was 2 times 4x

The speed he runs at is 4x

The distance walked was 3 times x

2 x 4x+3x= 55

11x= 55

x= 5

He walked at 5 Km/h
