Correct answer: (D) 15
Time ratio is inverse of speed ratio, so time becomes 5/3 of normal; extra time (5/3-1)=2/3 of normal time = 10 min, so normal time = 15 min.

सही उत्तर: (D) 15
समय का अनुपात गति के अनुपात के विपरीत है, इसलिए समय सामान्य का 5/3 हो जाता है; अतिरिक्त समय (5/3-1)=2/3 सामान्य समय = 10 मिनट, इसलिए सामान्य समय = 15 मिनट।
