Question

A car travelling  with  `5/7` of its actual speed covers 42 km in 1 hr 40 min 48 sec. Find the actual speed of the car.


Options:
A .  `17 6/7`km/hr
B .  25 km/hr
C .  30 km/hr
D .  35 km/hr
Answer: Option D

Time taken = 1 hr 40 min 48 sec = 1 hr 40`4/5`min = `1 51/75` hrs = `126/75` hrs

Let the actual  speed be `x` km/hr.

Then  `5/7 x xx 126/75` = 42    or  `x = ((42 xx 7 xx 75)/(5 xx 126))` = 35 km/hr.
