Excluding Stoppages, The Speed Of A Bus Is 54 Kmph And Including Stoppages, It Is 45 Kmph. For How Many Minutes Does The Bus Stop Per Hour?

Answer»

SPEED of the bus excluding stoppages = 54 kmph.

Speed of the bus including stoppages = 45 kmph.

Loss in speed when including stoppages = 54 - 45 = 9kmph.

=> In 1 hour, bus COVERS 9 km less due to stoppages

Hence, TIME that the bus stop per hour = time taken to COVER 9 km.

=distance / speed= 9 / 54 hour = 1/6 hour = 60/6 min=10 min.

Speed of the bus excluding stoppages = 54 kmph.

Speed of the bus including stoppages = 45 kmph.

Loss in speed when including stoppages = 54 - 45 = 9kmph.

=> In 1 hour, bus covers 9 km less due to stoppages

Hence, time that the bus stop per hour = time taken to cover 9 km.

=distance / speed= 9 / 54 hour = 1/6 hour = 60/6 min=10 min.
