    Question

    A bike can finish a certain journey in 6 hours at the speed of 92 km/hr. In order to cover the same distance in 3 hours, the speed of the bike (in km/hr) must be increased by ____.​

    A.

    86

    B.

    98

    C.

    92

    D.

    85

    Correct option is C

    Given:

    Original speed of the bike = 92 km/hr
    Time taken to complete the journey at this speed = 6 hours
    Time to complete the same journey in the new time = 3 hours

    Concept Used:

    Distance = Speed × Time
    The distance remains constant in both cases.

    Formula Used:

    Distance = Speed × Time

    Solution:

    Let the distance to be covered be D.
    Calculate the original distance:
    D = Speed × Time
    D = 92 × 6 = 552 km
     the required speed to cover the same distance in 3 hours:
    New Speed = Distance / Time
    New Speed = 552 / 3 = 184 km/hr
    Increase in Speed = New Speed - Original Speed
    Increase in Speed = 184 - 92 = 92 km/hr

    The speed of the bike must be increased by 92 km/hr.
