SSC MTS - 18/10/2024 - (4:00 PM - 5:30 PM) • Quantitative Aptitude • Q7

How many seconds will a boy take to run one complete round around a square field of side 38 metres, if he runs at a speed of 6 km/h?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is option 4 i.e 91.2. 

Side of square field = 38 m

So, Perimeter = 4 × 38 = 152 m

Speed = 6 km/h

Convert to m/s = 6 km/h = (6 × 1000) / 3600 = 5/3 m/s

Time = Distance / Speed = 152 ÷ (5/3) = 152 × (3/5) = 91.2 seconds
