Amar and Akbar left bhubaneshwar simultaneously and travelled towards cuttack . Amar's speed was 15 kmph and that of Akbar was 12 Kmph. Half an hour later, Anthony left Bhubaneshwar and travelled in the same direction . Some time later he overtook Akbar and 90 minutes further on he overtook Amar. Find Anthonys speed..
Pls explain approach

18 kmph?

7.5/(A - 15) - 6/(A - 12) = 1.5
(7.5A - 90 - 6A + 90) = 1.5 (A^2 - 27A + 180)
1.5A = 1.5 (A^2 - 27A + 180)
A = A^2 - 27A + 180
A^2 - 28A + 180 = 0
A = 18 or A = 10

8?

r = 18
e = 5
a = 1
d = 4
sum = 28
28/4 = 7


h = 8

new sum = 32
32/4 = 8

for read..7 = sum of alphabets/4
hear = 8

6/t=a-12----1
7.5/(t+1.5)=a-15----2
Putting value of t from 1 to 2
7.5/(a-15)-6/(a-12)=1.5
a=18 satisfy
