Solution

First, we need to find out the distance the man covers. We know that he walks at a speed of 5 km/hr for 3 hours and 36 minutes.

Step 1: Convert 3 hours 36 minutes into hours. 3 hours 36 minutes = 3.6 hours

Step 2: Calculate the distance he covers by walking. Distance = Speed * Time Distance = 5 km/hr * 3.6 hours = 18 km

Now, we know that he covers the same distance on a cycle at a speed of 24 km/hr. We need to find out how long it takes him to cover this distance on a cycle.

Step 3: Calculate the time it takes him to cover the distance on a cycle. Time = Distance / Speed Time = 18 km / 24 km/hr = 0.75 hours

Step 4: Convert 0.75 hours into minutes. 0.75 hours = 45 minutes

So, the time taken by him to cover the same distance on a cycle is 45 minutes. The correct answer is 45.
