A bus travelling at 56 km/h completes a journey in 16 hours. At what speed will it have to cover the same distance in 8 hours?

Correct option is C

Given:

Speed of bus initially = 56 km/h

Time taken = 16 hours

Same distance must be covered in 8 hours.

Formula Used:

Distance =$$\text{Speed} \times \text{Time}$$​​

Solution:

Distance covered at first speed:

D = 56 $$\times 1$$​6 = 896 km

New speed to cover 896 km in 8 hours:

New Speed =$$\frac{896}{8} = 112 \, \text{km/h}$$​
