347. Excluding stoppages, the speed of a bus is 54 kmph and including stoppages, it is 45 kmph. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour?

A. 12
B. 11
C. 10
D. 9
✅ The correct answer is option C. 10.
speed of the bus excluding stoppages = 54 kmph

speed of the bus including stoppages = 45 kmph

Loss in speed when including stoppages = 54 – 45 = 9kmph

=> In 1 hour, bus covers 9 km less due to stoppages

Hence, time that the bus stop per hour = time taken to cover 9 km
