An individual is cycling at a speed of 25 km per hour. He catches his predecessor who had started earlier in two hours. What is the speed of his predecessor who had started 3 hours earlier ?

a) 15 kmph
b) 12 kmph
c) 10 kmph
d) 8 kmph

Answer: c
Explanation: The distance covered in two hour,
= 2 × 25 = 50 km
Time taken by first individual = (3h + 2h) = 5h
So, the speed of predecessor
= $$\frac{{50}}{5}$$ = 10 kmph.
