Q:

A man covers a distance of 1200 km in 70 days resting 9 hours a day, if he rests 10 hours a day and walks with speed 1½ times of the previous in how many days will he cover 840 km ?

A) 39 days B) 37 days
C) 35 days D) 33 days
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 35 days

Explanation:

Distance d = 1200km
let S be the speed

he walks 15 hours a day(i.e 24 - 9)
so totally he walks for 70 x 15 = 1050hrs.

S = 1200/1050 => 120/105 = 24/21 => 8/7kmph


given 1 1/2 of previous speed
so 3/2 * 8/7= 24/14 = 12/7

New speed = 12/7kmph

Now he rests 10 hrs a day that means he walks 14 hrs a day.

time = 840 x 7 /12 => 490 hrs
=> 490/14 = 35 days

So he will take 35 days to cover 840 km.
