A man decided to run rounds of a circular track of in certain time with certain speed. He starts running but after completing some round around the track he reduces his speed by due to which he takes extra as scheduled. But if he reduces his speed by completing more rounds he would have reached earlier than the time he actually reached.
Find the number of rounds at which he decided to reduce his speed?
