Question

How many minutes will Rashid take to cover a distance of 300 meters if he runs at a speed of 15 kilometres per hour?

• A. 1 min
• B. 1.5 min
• C. 6/5 min
• D. 3 min
• E. 2 min

Answer 1

The correct option is C

6/5 min

Rashid's speed = 15 kmph
= $15\times$ $\frac{5}{18}$
= $\frac{25}{6}$ m/sec

$\Rightarrow$ 300 $\times$ $\frac{6}{25}$ = 72 seconds
= 1 $\frac{1}{5}$ minutes
=$\frac{6}{5}$ minutes
