3. 5
4. 6

Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : 5

Given:

Speed of scooter = 30 km/h

Distance covered = 2.5 km

Formula used:

Speed = Distance/Time

Calculation:

Time = Distance/Speed

⇒ Time = 2.5/30

⇒ 1/12 hr

Convert hour in minutes

⇒ 1/12 × 60

⇒ 5 minutes

∴ The time is taken by Mohan to cover the given distance in a minute is 5 minutes.
