Page No: 39
Now, for the values of n
For n = 5
The difference between the speed of the faster boy to the slower one, if the speed of the faster boy is 5x and that of the

3x - x = 2x
For n = 4
The difference between the speed of the faster boy to the slower one, if the speed of the faster boy is 4x and that of the
slower boy is x
4x - x = 3x
For n = 6
The difference between the speed of the faster boy to the slower one, if the speed of the faster boy is 6x and that of the
slower boy is x
6x - x = 5x
