Constant 3376

The plane flies at a speed of 240 km/h and flies a route of 396 km in 3 hours 20 minutes there and back - once it flies with the wind, the second time it flies against the wind, which has a constant speed the whole time.
What is the wind speed?

Correct answer:

v =  24 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

t1 (240+v)=396 t2 (240v)=396 t1+t2= 3+20/60 t1=3/2=23=1.5 t2=11/6=6111.8333 v=24=24 km/h
