Running 3/4th of his usual rate, a man is 15min late. Find his usual time in hours ?

Correct Answer: 3/4 hrs

Explanation:

Walking at 3/4th of usual rate implies that time taken would be 4/3th of the usual time. In other words, the time taken is 1/3rd more than his usual time


 


so 1/3rd of the usual time = 15min
or usual time = 3 x 15 = 45min = 45/60 hrs = 3/4 hrs.
