Answer : 2. "30 min"
Explanation :
Answer: B) 30 min Explanation: Distance travelled by Ramu = 45 x 4 = 180 km Somu travelled the same distance in 6 hours. His speed = 180/6 = 30 km/hr Hence in the conditional case, Ramu's speed = 45 - 9 = 36 km/hr and Somu's speed = 30 + 10 = 40km/hr. Therefore travel time of Ramu and Somu would be 5 hours and 4.5 hours respectively. Hence difference in the time taken = 0.5 hours = 30 minutes.
