Question

Manu travels 5 km in 8.25 hours. What is the time taken by him to cover (2000 m +3000 m) ?

• A. 8hours
• B. 8.5 hours
• C. 8.25hours
• D. 7.25hours

Answer 1

The correct option is C 8.25hours

1 km = 1000m
$\therefore$ 5km = 5000 m
Time taken to cover (2000 m + 3000 m) is the same as the time taken to cover 5000m.
$\because$ (2000 m + 3000 m) = 5000 m
Now 5000m = 5km.
hence, the time taken by Manu to cover (2000 m + 3000 m) is the same as the time taken to cover 5 km, that is 8.25 hours.
