Solution

The correct option is D
60

Distance of the picnic spot from the school = 55 km.
Distance travelled before taking first stop = 22 km.
Remaining distance = 55 - 22 = 33 km
Therefore, percentage of distance remaining is
= $\frac{R e m a i n i n g d i s t a n c e}{T o t a l d i s t a n c e} \times 100$
= $\frac{33}{55} \times 100 = 60 %$
