A group of eight bits is called as a byte and that of 4 bits is called as a nibble.

Let the original speed and time is S and T
then distance = S x T
Now the speed changes to 2/3S and T is T+20
As the distance is same
S x T = 2/3Sx(T+20)
solving this we get t = 40 minutes
=40/60 = 2/3 hour

Let the number of bricks be 'N'

10 x 4/100 x 6 x 90/100 = 25/100 x 15/100 x 8/100 x N

10 x 4 x 6 x 90 = 15 x 2 x N => N = 720.
