  • Question
  • A car travels a distance of 840 km at uniform speed. If the speed of the car is 10 km/hr more. It takes two hours less to cover the same distance. The original speed of the car was?


  • Options
  • A. 45 km/hr.
  • B. 50 km/hr.
  • C. 60 km/hr .
  • D. 75 km/hr.

  • Correct Answer
  • 60 km/hr . 

    Explanation

    Let the original speed be x km/hr.
    Then, [ 840/x - 840/( x + 10) ] = 2
    ? 840 (x + 10) - 840x = 2x (x+10)
    ? x2 + 10x - 4200 = 0
    ? (x + 70) (x - 60 ) = 0
    ? x = 60 km/hr.
