Reveal answer & explanation
Correct answer: B) 6,00,000
Explanation
Distance per day = 150 km x 2 (each round trip) x 2 trips = 600 km. Passengers carried on average = 50 x 80% = 40. Passenger-km per month = 40 x 600 x 25 = 6,00,000. Ignoring the return leg halves the figure; ignoring occupancy gives 7,50,000.
