    Solution

    Let the distance between town β€˜X’ and town β€˜Y’ be β€˜d’ km Let the correct time to travel be β€˜t’ hours According to the question, (d/40) = t + 0.75 And, (d/60) = t - 0.6 Or, (d/40) - (d/60) = 0.75 + 0.6 = 1.35 Or, (3d - 2d) Γ· 120 = 1.35 Or, d = 1.35 Γ— 120 = 162 Therefore, distance between town β€˜X’ and town β€˜Y’ is 162 km.
