      A man is travelling at a speed of 40 km/h such that he

      will take 90 minutes to reach his destination. But after completing half the journey, the man took a break of 15 minutes and then continued his journey. Find the speed at which the man must cover rest of the journey to reach his destination in original time.
      A 30 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 60 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 50 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 70 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E 80 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      Total distance to be covered = 40 × (90/60) = 60 km Time taken to cover half the distance at original speed = {(60 ÷ 2) ÷ 40} × 60 = 45 minutes Time remaining = 90 – 45 – 15 = 30 minutes Required speed = 30 ÷ 30 × 60 = 60 km/h
