  1. Answer:

    175 kmph

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Time = 2 hours

    Speed = 80 kmph

    Hence, Distance = speed × time

    = 80 × 2 = 160 km

    Ram is already late by 1 hour 5 minutes.

    So, Left time in which he has to reach his office = 2hours – 1 hour 5 minutes

    = 2 hours – ( 1 integer 5/60 ) hours

    = 2 – 13/12

    = (24 – 13)/12

    = 11/12 hour

    Now,

    Time = 11/12 hour

    Distance = 160 km

    Hence, Speed = Distance/Time

    = 160/(11/12)

    = (160×12)/11

    = 1920/11

    = 174.54 kmph

    = 175 kmph (approx).
