There are 4 people who has to cross a stretch of 300 km. They normally run at a speed of 10 kmph. One
of them has a bike that travels at 50 kmph. The bike first takes one person alone and crosses the
stretch while the other two keep running. Then he comes back without wasting time and picks up
another person from the way, drives him across the stretch, and does the same for the last person. How
long does this whole process take?	Choose the most appropriate option:
A) 24 hrs  B) 16 hrs  C) 56/3 hrs  D) 58/3 hrs  E) 18 hrs
Expl : Time taken to carry 2nd person = 300/50= 
<gadget id="calculator">300/50</gadget>
<output>6</output>
6 hrs.   Time taken to meet 3rd person=(300-6*10)/(50+10)= 
<gadget id="calculator">(300-6*10)/(50+10)</gadget>
<output>4</output>
4 hrs   Time taken to carry 3rd person= 4 hours   Time taken to meet 4th person = (300 –140)/60 = 8/3   Total time = 6+4+4+8/3+8/3 = 58/3 hours   Answer :58/3 hrs
