Question #1 Report Error
A car covers a certain distance at a speed of 48 km/h in 50 minutes. With what speed should it run to decrease the time of journey by 10 minutes?
A. 54 km/h
B. 72 km/h
C. 60 km/h
D. 64 km/h

Correct Answer: Option C


Explanation:
Original time = 50 mins. New time = 50 - 10 = 40 mins. S1 * T1 = S2 * T2 => 48 * 50 = S2 * 40 => S2 = (48 * 50) / 40 = 60 km/h.
