Option 1 : 12 km/hr

Given:

Speed through cycle = 8 kmph

Speed through bus = 15 kmph

Speed through bike = 20 kmph

Speed  through rickshaw = 12 kmph

Formula used:

Speed = Distance/Time

Calculation:

LCM of 4 speeds = LCM (8, 12, 15, 20)

⇒ 4 × 2 × 5 × 3 = 120

⇒ Total distance covered = 120 × 4

⇒ Total distance covered = 480 km

⇒ Time taken to travel from home to bus station = 120/8

⇒ Time taken 1 = 15 hours

⇒ Time taken to travel from bus station to B = 120/15

⇒ Time taken 2 = 8 hours

⇒ Time taken to travel on bike = 120/20

⇒ Time taken to travel on bike = 6 hours

⇒ Time taken to travel on rickshaw = 120/12

⇒ Time taken to travel on rickshaw = 10 hours

⇒ Average speed = (Total distance/4)/(Total time/4)  (∵ average speed = average distance/average time)

⇒ Avg. Speed = 480/(15 + 8 + 6 + 10)

⇒ Avg. Speed = 480/39

⇒ 480/39 ≈ 12 km/hr

∴ Required answer is 12 km/hr.

Questions below followed by three quantities. Find the relationship between them. Quantity I: In a class with a certain number of students if a teacher weighing 78 kg is added, then average weight of class is increased by 2 kg. If one more teacher weighing 66 kg is added, then the average weight of the class increases by 3.5 kg over the original average. What is the original average weight (in kg) of the class Quantity II: The average age of 16 students and their teacher's age is 16 years. If the teacher's age is excluded, the average reduces by 2. What is the teacher's age Quantity III: Average weight of three friends A, B and C is 46 kg. Another person D joins the group and now the average is 45 kg. If another person E whose weight is 6 kg more than D, joins the group replacing A, then average weight of B, C, D and E becomes 47 kg. What is the weight of A (in kg)?
