SSC GD Const 2025 (English) - 20 Feb 2025 - Shift 3 • Quantitative Aptitude • Q56

Hari travels from City A to City B. If Hari drives his car at 323\over2​ of his normal speed, then he reaches City B 30 minutes late. Find the time (in minutes) that Hari would have taken to travel from City A to City B if he drove at his normal speed.

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. 60 . 

He meant 2/3 of normal speed (slower), so 30 minutes late

Let normal time = t minutes

Time at 2/3 speed = t ÷ (2/3) = 3t/2

Delay = 3t/2 − t = 30

t/2 = 30

t = 60
