    Question

    A woman must travel 500 km in 10 hours. If she traveled

    the first 30% of the journey at a constant speed of 50 km/h, at what speed must she travel the remaining distance so that she finishes the journey on time?
    A 50 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 45 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 25 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 75 km/h Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, 30% of 500 = 150 km Time taken to travel 150 km = 150 ÷ 50 = 3 hours Remaining distance = 500 - 150 = 350 km Remaining time = 10 - 3 = 7 hours So, speed at which remaining distance is to be traveled = 350 ÷ 7 = 50 km/h
