A ship traveled 12 miles per hour going East & then went at 18 miles per hour heading south total 156 miles in 10 hours. How many miles did it travel going East?

The distance travels in going east is 48 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of ship while traveling in east = 12 miles/hour.

Speed of ship while travelling in south = 18 miles/hour.

The total distance covered by ship = 156 miles.

The total time taken by ship to cover 156 miles = 10 hours.

Let the distance traveled by ship in east = ' x ' miles.

So the distance covered by ship in south = ( 156 - x ) miles.

Let the time taken by ship to cover ' x ' miles in east is ' t ' hour.

So the time taken by ship to cover " 156 - x " miles = " 10 - t " hour.

We know the formula,

t + ( 10 - t ) = 10 hour.

 = 10

x + 312 = 360

x = 48 miles.

So the distance travels in going east is 48 miles.
