Let the time taken to reach the destination be 3x hours. Total distance = 40 * 3x = 120x km
He covered 2/3 * 120x = 80x km in 1/3 * 3x = x hours So, the remaining 40x km, he has to cover in 2x hours. Required speed = 40x/2x = 20 kmph.
By travelling at 40 kmph, a person reaches his destination on time. He covered two-third the total distance in one-third of the total time. What speed should he maintain for the remaining distance to reach his destination on time?
Options:
(1) 20
(2) 99
(3) 88
(4) 77
(5) 61
