Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 40 Km Given: Mr. Kumar drives to work at an average speed of 48 km per hour The time taken to cover the first 60% of the distance is 10 minutes more than the time taken to cover the remaining distance. Concept used: When the speed Is constant then the ratio of Distance and Time is directly proportional Speed = Distance/Time Calculation: The ratio of Time is ⇒ 60x : 40x = 3x : 2x According to the questions ⇒ 3x - 2x = 10 mins ⇒ x = 10 minx Tota time = 5x = 50 mins ⇒ Distance = 48 × (50/60) ⇒ Distance = 40 km. ∴ Mr. Kumar office is 40 km away.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 40 Km

Given:

Mr. Kumar drives to work at an average speed of 48 km per hour

The time taken to cover the first 60% of the distance is 10 minutes more than the time taken to cover the remaining distance.

Concept used:

When the speed Is constant then the ratio of Distance and Time is directly proportional

Speed = Distance/Time

Calculation:

The ratio of Time is

⇒ 60x : 40x = 3x : 2x

According to the questions

⇒ 3x - 2x = 10 mins

⇒ x = 10 minx

Tota time = 5x = 50 mins

⇒ Distance = 48 × (50/60)

⇒ Distance = 40 km.

∴ Mr. Kumar office is 40 km away.
