Q:

A bike runs at the speed of 35 km/h when not serviced and runs at 55 km/h, when serviced. After servicing the bike covers a certain distance in 5 h. How much approximate time will the bike take to cover the same distance when not serviced?

A) 8 hrs B) 7.5 hrs
C) 7 hrs D) 6.5 hrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 8 hrs

Explanation:

Given speed of the bike after servicing = 55 kmph

Time taken for travelling some distance at 55 kmph = 5 hrs

Then, 

Distance = Speed x Time = 55 x 5 = 275 kms.

Now, 

Speed of the bike before servicing = 35 kmph

Distance = 275 kms

Now, Time = Distance/Speed = 275/35 = 7.85 hrs =~ 8 hrs.
