    Question

    Walking at 3/4 of his normal speed, Ramesh gets delayed by 20 minutes to reach home. Find the normal time it would take for Ramesh to reach home.

    A.

    30 min

    B.

    45 min

    C.

    60 min

    D.

    120 min

    Correct option is C

    Given
    New Speed = 34\frac{3}{4}​ of  Normal Speed
    Delay = 20 minutes

    Solution
    Speed Ratio = 3 : 4 (New : Normal)
    Time Ratio = 4 : 3 (Inversely proportional)
    Difference in time ratio = 4 - 3 = 1 unit
    1 unit = 20 minutes
    Normal Time (3 units) = 3 ×\times​20 = 60 minutes

    Final Answer
    So the correct answer is (c)
