The average speed of a bus is three-fourth the average speed of a train. The train covers 240 km in 12 h. How much distance will the bus cover in 7 h?

A) 110 km
B) 115 km
C) 105 km
D) 100 km

Correct Answer:



C) 105 km

Description for Correct answer:

Average speed or train = \( \Large \frac{240}{12} \) = 20 km/h

Average speed of bus

=> \( \Large \frac{3}{4} \times 20 = 3 \times 5 \) =15 km/h

Required distance = \( \Large 15 \times 7 \) = 105 km
