- B. 45 minutes

- D. 50 minutes (Correct answer)
Correct Answer
Option D — 50 minutes
Detailed Solution & Explanation

Key Points
- Walking time for 5 km at 10 km/h = 30 min.
- He rests after every km — after 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th km (not after 5th as that is the destination) = 4 rests × 5 min = 20 min.
- Total = 30 + 20 = 50 minutes.
