Horse carriage
Hlušice and Jarošov are 10 km apart. A horse-drawn carriage leaves Hlušice for Jarošov at a speed of 5 km/h, and at the same time a traveller leaves Jarošov for Hlušice at a speed of 3 km/h. At the moment the carriage departs, a fly starts from the horse's nose at a speed of 9 km/h, flying to the traveller's nose and back repeatedly until the horse and traveller meet. How many km does the fly travel in total?
