SSC CGL Tier II - Quant - 18 Nov 2020 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q90

A man walks at a speed of 8 km/h. After every km, he takes a rest for 4 minutes. How much time will he take to cover a distance of 6 km?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e. 65 minutes

Let's distribute the 6 km journey,

1km then rest + 1km then rest + 1 km then rest + 1 km then rest + 1 km then rest + 1 km

6km + 5 × rest.

Total time = (6/8) × 60 + 5 × 4

= 45 + 20= 65 minutes.
