A person has to cover the fixed distance through his
horses. There are five horses in the cart. They ran at the
full potential for the 24 hours continuously at constant
speed and then two of the horses ran away to some other
direction. So he reached the destination 48 hours behind
the schedule. If the five horses would have run 50 miles
more, then the person would have been only 24 hours late.
Find the distance of the destination.
