i think the appproach is releated lik tis...

actually if the tire is not punc. they hav to go just 10 min. sooner

but it is given that they may go 15 min sooner. therefore the velocity before tyre puncture d i s more than 30m/hr and they go by that vel. throughout th e total distance.

we hav to find the velocity.
