    A)  3 km/hr

    B)  4 km/hr

    C)  5 km/hr

    D)  7 km/hr

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    [c] Distance coverd in 10 minutes at 20kmph=distance covered in 8 minutes at (20+x) kmph \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,20\times \frac{10}{60}=\frac{8}{60}(20+x)\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,200=160+8x\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,8x=40\] \[\Rightarrow \,\,\,x=\frac{40}{8}=5kmph\]
