Solution

The correct option is B
False

The person covers 4 km out of 10 km. Therefore, the percentage of distance covered by him is:
$\frac{4}{10} = \frac{x}{100}$
$x = 40 %$
Thus, the person covers $40 %$ of the total distance, and the statement states that the person covers $50 %$ of the distance.

Hence the statement is incorrect.
