Question 756644: a man is walking at a speed of 10 km/hr.after every km he takerest for 5 min.how much time he take to cover a distance of 5 km
Answer by Cromlix(4381) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If the man is walking at 10 km/hr
then he will cover 5km in 30mins.
If he stops at the end of every km
for a 5 minute rest this will equal
4 * 5mins = 20mins
Therefore it will take him 50 mins
to cover the distance.
Hope this helps.
