The rate percent is:

A) 10% B) 7%

Then, B.D. = Rs.11/10= Rs. 1.10.

Sum = Rs. (1.10*1)/(1.10-1) = Rs. (110/10)= Rs. 11.

S.I. on Rs. 11 for 2 years is Rs. 1.10

Rate = [(100 x 1.10)/(11 x 2 )]% = 5%.

Q:

A person takes 20 minutes more to cover a certain distance by decreasing his speed by 20%. What is the time taken to cover the distance at his original speed ?

A) 1hr B) 1 hr 20 min
C) 1 hr 10 min D) 50 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 1 hr 20 min

Explanation:

Let the distance and original speed be 'd' km and 'k' kmph respectively.

d/0.8k - d/k = 20/60 => 5d/4k - d/k = 1/3

=> (5d - 4d)/4k = 1/3 => d = 4/3 k

Time taken to cover the distance at original speed

= d/k = 4/3 hours = 1 hour 20 minutes.
