In a boat race, Maggi and Jagriti start off together. Maggi rowed the boat at 4 km/h and Jagriti rowed at a speed of 6 km/h. By how many kilometres was Maggi lagging behind Jagriti after 2 hours.

4 kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

The question says that In a boat race, Maggi and Jagriti start off together. Maggi rowed the boat at 4 km/h and Jagriti rowed at a speed of 6 km/h. By how many kilometres was Maggi lagging behind Jagriti after 2 hours.

This particular question is very simple and wouldn't take much of our time to break

down.

Maggi rowed her boat at 4km/hr

Jagriti rowed his at 6km/hr

If both rowed their respective boats for 2 hours, them the the distance traveled by both of them will be

For Maggi, 4*2 = 8

For Jagriti, 6*2 = 12

Therefore, the distance traveled by both of them is 8km for Maggi and 12km for Jagriti.

If so, Jagriti has traveled farther away compared to Maggi and that by 4km

stance lagged behind by Maggi = 4 km

Step-by-step explanation:

After 2 hours, distance covered by Maggi = 4 km/h x 2 = 8 km

After 2 hours, distance covered by Jagriti = 6 km/h x 2 = 12 km

Hence distance lagged behind by Maggi = 12 - 8 = 4 km
