Options:
A .  1 hour
B .  `1 1/2` hours
C .  2 hours
D .  `2 1/2` hours.
Answer: Option C

Ratio of speeds = 3 : 4 Ratio of times taken = 4 : 3

Suppose A takes 4`x` hrs and B takes 3`x` hrs to reach the destination. Then ,

`4x - 3x = 30/60 = 1/2 or x = 1/2`

`:.`     ime taken by  A = 4`x` hrs.=  `(4 xx 1/2)`hrs =  2 hrs.
