Answer / guest
Let distance between home and church is D.
A person took 4 hours to reach church. So speed while
travelling towards church is D/4.
Similarly, he took 3 hours to reach home. So speed while
coming back is D/3.
There is a speed difference of 7*D/12, which is the wind
helping person in 1 direction, & slowing him in the other
direction. Average the 2 speeds, & you have the speed that
person can travel in no wind, which is 7*D/24.
Hence, person will take D / (7*D/24) hours to travel
distance D which is 24/7 hours.
Answer is 3 hours 25 minutes 42 seconds

In a kingdom far far away, the King decided that the time has come to find a husband for his princess daughter. The King wanted to find a worthy lad for his princess, so he promised to give his daughter away to the first young (or old) man who would solve the puzzle that has stumped the best of his court mathematicians for years. The puzzle is very simple: in a palace, there are 25 rooms arranged in a square--5 rows of rooms with 5 rooms in each row. In every room there is a light switch which not only switches on/off the light in that room, but also switches the lights in the adjacent rooms--the room to the right, to the left, the room above and the room below. Initially, all of the lights are turned off. The goal is to turn the lights on in every room of the palace.
