Q:

Ramu rides his bike at an average speed of 45 km/hr and reaches his desitination in four hours. Somu covers the same distance in six hours. If Ramu covered his journey at an average speed which was 9 km/hr less and Somu covered his journey at an average speed which was 10 km/hr more, then the difference in their times taken to reach the destination would be (in minutes).

A) 18 min B) 30 min
C) 27 min D) 32 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 30 min

Explanation:

Distance travelled by Ramu = 45 x 4 = 180 km

Somu travelled the same distance in 6 hours.

His speed = 180/6 = 30 km/hr

Hence in the conditional case, Ramu's speed = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr and Somu's speed = 30 + 10 = 40km/hr.

Therefore travel time of Ramu and Somu would be 5 hours and 4.5 hours respectively.

Hence difference in the time taken = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes.
