- bus stand to destination will be covered in 1.5 hour so it will reach at destination 9:30 am after that 30 min rest . Then at 10:00 am it will start journey again.As in question specified returning speed will be 50% fast so new speed will be 18 of 150% that is 27mph so it will cover the distance from destination to bus stand in 1 hour.
At 11:00 it will be in the bus stand. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(0)
