A.

48

B.

54

C.

64

D.

70

Correct option is C

Let the distance be DD15D16=16 minutes16D15D240=1660 hour=>D=16×24060D=64 km\text{Let the distance be } D\\\frac{D}{15} - \frac{D}{16} = 16 \text{ minutes}\\\frac{16D - 15D}{240} = \frac{16}{60} \text{ hour} \Rightarrow D = \frac{16 \times 240}{60}\\D = 64 \text{ km}​​
