A long distance runner runs 15 laps of a 400 metres track every day. His timings (in min) for five consecutive days are 44, 43, 39, 38 and 36 respectively. On an average, how many km/hr does the runner covers?

Total distance = 15 laps × 400 meters × 5 days Total distance = 30000 meters Total time = 44 + 43 + 39 + 38 + 36 Total time = 200 minutes Total time(in seconds) = 200 × 60 = 12000 seconds Speed = Distance/Time Speed (in m/sec) = 30000/12000 = 2.5 m/sec 1 m/sec = 18/5 km/hr ⇒ Speed (in km/hr) = 2.5 × 18/5 = 9 km/hr Hence the answer is 9 km/hrRelated 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-
