Correct Answer: 3:00 p.m.
Solution : Given: Distance = 200 km Speed = 40 km/h Time = Distance ÷ Speed = 200 ÷ 40 = 5 hours Total time of rest = (15 + 30 + 15) mins = 60 mins Now, convert minutes into hours = 60 ÷ 60 = 1 hour Total time taken by bus driver – = 5 + 1 = 6 hours Therefore, the bus driver will reach his destination at = 9:00 a.m. + 6 hours = 3:00 p.m.
Hence, the second option is correct.
