1. A cat leaps 5 leaps for every 4 leaps of a dog, but 3 leaps of the dog are equal to 4 leaps of the cat. What is the ratio of the speed of the cat to that of the dog?

Solution:
Given;
3dog = 4 cat
Or, dogcat=43
Let cat's 1 leap = 3 meter and dogs 1 leap = 4 meter
Then, ratio of speed of cat and dog = 3×54×4  = 15 : 16
