Rehana leaves her home early in the morning so that she can reach her office on time. If she walks at the rate of 7 km/hr then she reaches her office 8 minutes late. But, if she walks at a speed of 8 km/hr, then she reaches her office 4 minutes early. What is the distance in km between Rehana's house and her office ? 

A  10.5 

B  11.2 

C  11.5 

D  12.2 

Solution

Correct Answer: Option B

Solution: 

অনুবাদঃ  ঘন্টায় 7 কিমি বেগে গেলে 8 মিনিট দেরী হয় । আর ঘন্টায় 8 কিমি বেগে 4 মিনিট আগে পৌছায় । আপনাকে দূরত্ব বের করতে হবে । 

  Shortcut: দূরত্ব/১ম বেগ - Late = দূরত্ব/২য় বেগ + Early 

      => D/7 - 8/60 = D/8 + 4/60              [মিনিটকে ঘন্টায় নিতে হবে ] 

     => D = 11.2 km.
