A cyclist practising for a road race found that one complete circuit of the course took exactly two hours and fifteen minutes. The course at one part was very hilly. His speed on the level was at the rate of 16 km per hour, uphill it was 12 km per hour and downhill 24 km per hour.

What is the distance round the course?

Answer: 36 km.
