SSC CGL Tier II - Quant - 3 Feb 2022 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q64

An athlete runs 8 times around a circular field of radius 7 m in 3 minutes 40 seconds. His speed (in km/h) is: (Take π=227)(Take \ \pi =\frac{22}{7})

 

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 14425\frac{144}{25}

The radius of the field = 7 m.

Distance travelled by an athlete = 8 × 2 × 22/7 × 7 = 352m

Time taken = 3 minutes 40 seconds = 180 + 40 = 220 secs.

Speed = 352/220 × 18/5 = 144/25 km/hr.
