Solution
The correct option is
C
70 km
Distance covered in 1 hour = 20 km
Distance covered in 3 and half hours = Distance covered in 3 hours + Distance covered in half an hour
Distance covered:
In 3 hours = 3
×
20 = 60 km
In half an hour =
1
2
of 20 km = 10 km
Total Distance = 60 km + 10 km
= 70 km
