Andy wants a challenge and he has decided to cycle from Jamestown to Country End, a distance of 1600km. He never cycles more than 150km each day, but in order to conserve his energies, he has decided on the following restrictions:- After he has cycled 150km for each of two consecutive days he will cycle only 75km the next day.- On Saturdays he will cycle only 75km and on Sundays he will have a rest day.- On each day he will cycle the maximum permitted within these restrictions.Andy will leave Jamestown early on a Wednesday morning.If he completes the ride without any unexpected delays, on what day of the week will Andy arrive in Country End?
Correct answer: D. Wednesday
- A. Monday
- B. Tuesday
- C. Thursday
- D. Wednesday
Explanation
Andy will arrive in Country End on Wednesday. By following the cycling pattern of 150km for two days, then 75km, and incorporating rest days as per the restrictions, he will reach his destination on Wednesday. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not align with the specified cycling routine and final arrival day in the question.

About Scientific Reasoning
Scientific reasoning evaluates hypotheses through observations, variables, controls, measurements and experimental results. Questions involve identifying independent and dependent variables, recognising a fair test, interpreting tables or graphs, distinguishing evidence from opinion, and deciding whether data supports, rejects or leaves a hypothesis unresolved.
