Question : A man walking at the speed of 8 km/hr covers a certain distance in 5 hours and 30 minutes. If he covers the same distance by cycle in 4 hours, then what is the speed of the cycle?
Option 1: 11 km/hr
Option 2: 15 km/hr
Option 3: 8 km/hr
Option 4: 9 km/hr
Correct Answer: 11 km/hr
Solution :
Time = 5 hr 30 minutes = 5.5 hours
Distance = Speed $\times$ Time $=8\times5.5=44$ km
According to the question,
The same distance is covered by cycle in 4 hours.
$\therefore$ Speed of the cycle $=\frac{44}{4}=11$ km/hr
Hence, the correct answer is 11 km/hr.
