Solution

First, we need to find out the total distance covered by the bus. We can do this by multiplying the speed of the bus by the time it traveled.

The bus was moving at 40 km per hour and it traveled for 6 hours 15 minutes. But we need to convert the time to hours completely.

6 hours 15 minutes = 6.25 hours

So, the total distance = speed * time = 40 km/hr * 6.25 hr = 250 km

Now, we need to find out how long it will take to cover the same distance at a speed of 50 km per hour.

We can find the time by dividing the total distance by the speed.

Time = Distance / Speed = 250 km / 50 km/hr = 5 hours

So, the correct option is 5 hours.
