Correct Answer: 54.55 minutes
Solution : Speed = 4 km/hr Time taken = 3 hr 45 min = $\frac{15}{4}$ hr So, the distance = Speed × Time = $4×\frac{15}{4}$ = 15 km New speed = 16.5 km/hr $\therefore$ Time taken at 16.5 km/hr = $\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}$ = $\frac{15}{16.5}$ = 0.9091 hr = 0.9091 × 60 = 54.55 minutes Hence, the correct answer is 54.55 minutes.
