Let's first calculate how much distance Ram has already covered:
(3/5) × 250 km = 150 km
So, the remaining distance that Ram needs to cover is:
250 km - 150 km = 100 km
Ram has 6 hours to complete the journey, but he wants to reach 30 minutes early. So, he wants to reach the destination in 5.5 hours.
Time remaining for Ram to complete the journey:
5.5 hours - 3.5 hours = 2 hours
To cover the remaining 100 km in 2 hours, Ram needs to travel at a speed of:
100 km / 2 hours = 50 km/h
Therefore, Ram needs to travel at a speed of 50 km/h to reach the examination center 30 minutes early.
