Question

A.

12 minutes

B.

10 minutes

C.

9 minutes

D.

8 minutes

Correct option is B

Walking at 5/6 of her usual speed Anita took 2 minutes more than usual to reach the bus terminus. How long does Anita take to reach the terminus on days that she isn’t late?

Given:

Anita walks 5/6 of his usual speed and he takes 2 minutes more then usual to reach the bus terminus.

Formula Used:

Speed      1Time\frac{1}{Time}

Solution:

Speed Ratio  = Usual speed  : New speed 

=        6            :         5 

Time Ratio    =           5         :         6 

Usual time = 5 unit 

Time when he walks 5/6 of his usual speed = 6 unit 

According to the question 6 unit - 5 unit = 2 minutes 

                                               1 unit = 2 minutes 

She reach to the terminus  = 5 unit = 10 minutes so that she isn't late.
