Time & Distance Mcqs 26/06/2020

A. 12
B. 11
C. 10
D. 9

speed of the bus excluding stoppages = 54 kmph
speed of the bus including stoppages = 45 kmph
Loss in speed when including stoppages = 54 – 45 = 9kmph
=> In 1 hour, bus covers 9 km less due to stoppages
Hence, time that the bus stop per hour = time taken to cover 9 km

=distance/speed=9/54 hour=1/6 hour = 60/6 min=10 min
