• A. 2
• B. 5
• C. 4
• D. 3

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2

$\text{Alex drives 15,000 m in 5 minutes.}$

$\text{In 1 minute, he drives}$ $\text{= 15,000}÷5\text{= 3,000 m}$

$\text{We have to find in how much}$ $\text{time can he drive 6,000 m.}$

$\text{Now 6,000 m will be covered in}$
$\text{= 6,000}÷\text{3,000}$
$\text{2 minutes}$

$\text{Hence, Alex will take 2 minutes}$ $\text{to cover 6,000 meters.}$
