    81 miles………..

    sol: let hare move x mile. then tortoise moved 90-x mile.

    since time spent is same
    => x/9=(90-x)/1
    => x=810-9x
    => 10x = 81=> x=81 miles………….ans

    Solution for the above question.

    Most of you have answered it correctly.

    The hare and the tortoise are together covering the distance at 10 miles per hour (i.e., on adding their speeds).
    So, they will cover the distance of 90 miles in 9 hours.
    Thus, in 9 hours, they will meet and the hare will have traveled 81 miles.
