    Hello Hemanth,
    As given, normal speed of bus is 54 Km/Hour.
    When bus stop on stoppages then average speed become 45 km/hr.
    Difference is 54-45 = 9 km/hr
    So when bus stops on stoppages then it travel 9 km less in an hour. right ?
    Now we need to calculate time taken by bus to travel 9 km.
    Time = Distance/Speed
    = 9/54 = 1/6 hour or (1/6) * 60 minutes
    = 10 minutes.
    Please let me know if any confusion.
