Problem: ramu rides his bike at an average speed of 45 km / hr and reaches his desitination in 4 hours . somu covers the same distance in 6 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 ) .
Rationale: distance travelled by ramu = 45 * 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 = 40 km / 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 . answer : b
