1. Nader drove from Mymensingh to Dhaka at 60 miles/hour. Returning over the same route , there was a lot of traffic , and he was only able to drive at 40 miles/hour . If the return trip took 1 hour longer, what is the distance between Dhaka and Mymensingh ?

  • A. 2 miles
  • B. 2 miles
  • C. 2 miles
  • D. 2 miles

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

Let, s = distance between Dhaka to Mymensingh.

t = time taken to travel from Mymensingh to Dhaka

V = velocity

We have s = vt

Hare s(distance) is constant

ATQ

v×t = v1×t1

60t = 40(t + 1)

t = 20

So s = 60×20 = 120 mile

Ans. 120 mile
