Time & Distance Mcqs
Q. Taimoor left for his school at 6 am by foot and walked at the rate of 2 kmph. After reaching his school he found it was closed and immediately turned back and started walking back to his home at 3 kmph. If he reached his home at 9 am, find the distance between his school and his home.
a. 2.5 km
b. 7.2 km
c. 7 km
d. 3.6 km
Average speed of Taimoor = (2*2*3)/(2 + 3) = 2.4 km/hr
If d is he distance between the school and Taimoor’s home, then total distance walked by Taimoor = 2d, and the total time taken is 3 hours
2.4 = 2d/3
7.2 = 2d
d = 3.6 km
