Question:

In how much time can a person cover a distance of 300 metres at a speed of 27 km/h?

Options:

40 seconds

30 seconds

25 seconds

35 seconds

Correct Answer:

40 seconds

Explanation:

Speed = 27 km/h

27 km/h = 27 × \(\frac{5 }{18 }\)m/sec  =  \(\frac{15 }{2 }\) m/sec

Total distance = 300 m

Time taken =  \(\frac{Distance  }{Speed }\)  

= \(\frac{300 × 2 }{15 }\)  

= 40 sec
