      Question

      A person reaches his destination 36 minutes late because

      he walked at (4/5) of his usual speed. How much time does he normally take to reach his destination?
      A 121 mins Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 154 mins Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 144 mins Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 132 mins Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,

      When distance is constant,

      Time โˆ (1/Speed)

      So, ratio of time = 4:5

      Let usual time = 4t and slower time = 5t

      5t โ€“ 4t = 36

      t = 36

      Usual time = 4t = 4 ร— 36 = 144 minutes
