Question

Excluding the halts, the speed of the bus is 50 km/ hr and including the halts it is 40 km/hr. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour?

Answer 1

The bus stops for 12 minutes per hour.

Explanation:

Speed of bus excluding halts = 50 km/h

Speed on bus including the halts = 40 km/h

Now

The distance covered due to stoppage = 50 - 40 = 10 km less distance

Time taken to cover 10 km = 10 / 50 x 60

                                             = 1/5 x 60

                                             = 12 minutes

Hence the bus stops for 12 minutes per hour.
