Use some thinking to answer the following question. A train does a journey without stoppage in 8 hours, if it had travelled 5 km/h faster, it would have done the journey in 6 hours 40 minutes. Find its original speed.
Options:
(A) 25 km/h
(B) 40 km/h
(C) 45 km/h
(D) 36.5 km/h
(E) None of these
Let original speed = S km/h
Here, distance to be covered is constant
S 8 = (S + 5)(203)
8S - 203S = 1003 S = 1004 = 25 km/h So the final answer is (A).
