Amit covers a distance at a speed of 24 km/hr in 6 min. If he wants to cover the same distance in 8 min, what should be his speed?

  • A.18 km/hr
  • B.21 km/hr
  • C.30 km/hr
  • D.15 km/hr

Answer: A

Over a fixed distance, speed and time are inversely proportional.

\[ v_{2} = v_{1} \times \frac{t_{1}}{t_{2}} = 24 \times \frac{6}{8} = 18 \text{ km/hr} \]

More time means less speed, so the answer must be below 24 km/hr - which rules out two options immediately. The distance itself (2.4 km) is never needed.
