SSC Selection Post - Graduation Level 2020 - 14 Dec 2020 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q69

A man takes 5 minutes to cover a certain distance at a speed of 6 km/h. If he walks at a speed of 10 km/h, how long will it take to cover the same distance?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is Option 3 i.e. 3 minutes. 

Distance = 6 × 5605\over60 = 121\over2 km

Time = 1210{1\over2}\over10 = 1201\over20 hours

⇒ 1201\over20 × 60 = 3 minutes
