Answer:
6 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the actutal time be T taken by the bus to cover the distance with original speed.
Let the new time be T' taken by the bus to cover the same with the original and reduced speed.
Let D be the total distance travelled by the bus. So, the distance travelled by reduced speed will be 2/3D
Let S be the original speed. So, the reduced speed will be S - 1/3S = 2/3S
According to question, the bus arrived 1 hr late from the scheduled time of arrival.
This implies T'-T = 1
⇒ 2/3D + 1/3D _ D = 1 (since distance/speed=time)
S 2/3S S
After solving the above equation and putting T in the place of D/S, we get T = 6 hrs. (Answer)
