Solution

The correct option is D 20 km/h
Total time taken = 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. = 12 hours
Stoppage time = 60 minutes = 1 hour
Actual time taken = 12 hours – 1 hour = 11 hours
Speed $= \frac{T o t a l d i s t a n c e c o v e r e d}{a c t u a l t i m e t a k e n}$
$= \frac{220 k m}{11 h}$
$= 20 k m / h$
