Question

    Two motorcycles, a Honda and a Hero, set off

    simultaneously from the same location, aiming for the same endpoint. The Honda travels at a speed of 48 km/h, while the Hero moves at 60 km/h. Given that the Hero arrives 20 minutes earlier than the Honda, what is the entire length of the trip?
    A 25 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 45 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 65 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 80 km Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    E none of these Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let the total distance covered be 'a' km So, (a/48) - (20/60) = (a/60) Or, {(a - 16) /48} = (a/60) Or, 5 × (a - 16) = 4a Or, a = 80 So, total distance covered = 80 km
