Excluding stoppages, the speed of a train is 45 kmph and including stoppages it is 36 kmph. Of how many minutes does the train stop per hour?

  • A.10 min
  • B.11 min
  • C.12 min
  • D.13 min

Answer: C

In one hour of clock time the train covers 36 km instead of 45, losing 9 km of travel.

\[ t = \frac{9}{45} \text{ h} = \frac{1}{5} \text{ h} = 12 \text{ minutes} \]

The lost distance is timed at the running speed of 45 kmph, since that is the speed it would have been covered at.
