A man cycles at a rate of 4 kmph. He cycles for 45 minutes and then takes a 15 minute break. Determine the total time taken to cover 12 kms by him.

Answer: D

Speed of man = 4kmph

Time for which he cycled = 45 minutes.

Distance covered = speed*time

=> 4*45/60

=> 3km

Total time to cover 3 km = 45 minutes + 15 minutes = 60 minutes = 1 hour

Thus 3 km is covered in 1 hour

Required distance to be covered = 12 km

Beginning from origin point, he covers 9 km in 3 hours taking 15 minutes rest after every 45 minutes. To complete 12 kms he goes another 3 km in 45 minutes.

Thus, total time he takes is 3 hours 45 minutes.
