Bus stops at 12 stations for 2 minutes each. So, bus stopped for a total of 24 minutes. Total time taken by bus = 1 hour and 30 minutes = 1.5 hours Total time for which bus ran = 1 hour and 30 minutes – 24 minutes = 1 hour and 6 minutes = 1.1 hours ∴ Distance travelled by bus = Time for which bus ran × Running speed of bus = 1.1 × 40 = 44 kmRelated questions
A man takes twice as long to row a distance against the stream as to row the same distance in favour of the stream. The ratio of the speed of the boat (in still water) and the stream is:Speed of a boat in standing water is 9 kmph and the speed of the stream is 5 kmph. A man rows to a place at a distance of 105 km and comes back to the starting point. The total time taken by him is:two trains are moving in opposite directions at 60 km/hr and 90 km/hr. Their lengths are 1/10 km and 9 km respectively. The time taken by slower train to cross the faster train in seconds is -A man can row three-quarters of a kilometre against the stream in 11×(1/4) minutes and down the stream in 7×(1/2) minutes. The speed (in km/hr) of the man in still water is:In a 300 m race A beats B by 5 metre or 6 seconds. B's time over the course is -A boatman goes 2 km against the current of the stream in 1 hour and goes 1 km along the current in 10 minutes. How long will it take to go 5 km in stationary water?A boat covers a certain distance downstream in 1 hour, while it comes back in 1x(1/2) hours. If the speed of the stream be 3 kmph, what is the speed of the boat in still water?A man buys tk 20 shares paying 9% dividend. The man wants to have an interest of 12% on his money. The market value of each share is-
