    C 51 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 50 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E 61 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Total distance to be covered = 20 × (60/60) = 20 km Time taken to cover half the distance at original speed = {(20 ÷ 2) ÷ 20} × 60 = 30 minutes Time remaining = 60 – 30 – 15 = 15 minutes Required speed = 10 ÷ 15 × 60 = 40 km/h
