The easy method: For 1 hour the bus travels for 54 km then for one min its 54/60=0.9km.
So if the bus stops for one minute it travel 0.9 km less so if the bus travels 9 km less then it might stopped for 10 min.
So if the bus stops for one minute it travel 0.9 km less so if the bus travels 9 km less then it might stopped for 10 min.
