Its mentioned that speed decreases proportionally with increase of number of passengers. So, the two are inversely proportional to each other.
Speed No. of passengers
----- -----------------
100 km/h 6
x 3
inversely proportional => multiply directly
3x = 6 * 100
x = 600 / 3
x = 200 Km/h
Therefore, speed of the bus when three people are travelling = 200Km/h

Top seated-100 km/hr with six person
so with one person speed of bus=100/6
so with 3 person it will be=(100/6)*3.
ie.50 km/hr Source: CoolInterview.com

Bus speed for 6 person =100km/hr
Then for 3 person means = 100/6*3
so more or less =150 km/hr speed.

The givens state the top speed of the bus is 100 KM/H, and it has max capacity of 6, but does not say 100 KM/H with 6 persons. So, it might be safe to assume that the 100 is with one person, the driver.
Therefore, if it can travel 100 KM/H with one person, then with 3 persons, perhaps 33 1/3 KH/H would be the speed of this bus which defies all engineering principles. Source: CoolInterview.com

person decrease speed 100/6 =16.666
if 3 person travel mince decrease speed =16.666*3=50Km/Hr
so Bus speed travel with- 100-50= 50Km/Hr
So answer is 50Km/Hr Source: CoolInterview.com

hello my dear people
bus travels with a max of 100 kmph, he asserted that speed decreases with increase of persons.
when the bus can reach its max (100 kmph) with 6 persons, then it'll reach its max with 3 persons also i.e 6 or less than 6 the bus can attain its max, and why the hell do u go for those calculations, use ur brains instead Source: CoolInterview.com

The answer is 33.33Km/hr.
If the maximum speed of bus is 100kph it has to be with only one person in it,the driver.If 3 people board the same bus then the speed decreases proportionally ie becomes 1/3rd.
THIS IS THE CORRECT ANSWER BECAUSE NOWHERE IN THE QUESTION IT IS MENTIONED THAT THE TOP SPEED IS WHEN THERE ARE 6 PEOPLE IN IT. Source: CoolInterview.com

Three salesmen went into a hotel to rent a room. The manager stated that he had only one room left, but all three could use it for $30.00 for the night. The three salesmen gave him $10.00 each and went up to their room. Later, the manager decided that he had charged the salesmen too much so he called the bellhop over, gave him five one-dollar bills, and said: 'Take this $5.00 up to the salesmen and tell them I had charged them too much for the room'. On the way up, the bellhop knew that he could not divide the five one-dollar bills equally so he put two of the one-dollar bills in his pocket and returned one one-dollar bill to each of the salesmen. This means that each salesman paid $9.00 for the room. The bellhop kept $2.00. Three times nine is 27 plus two is 29....... What happened to the extra dollar?

A number is called a palindrome when it is equal to the number you get when all its digits are reversed. For example, 2772 is a palindrome. We discovered a curious thing. We took the number 461, reversed the digits, giving the number 164, and calculated the sum of these two numbers: 461 164 + ------- 625 We repeated the process of reversing the digits and calculating the sum two more times: 625 526 + ------- 1151 1511 + ------- 2662 To our surprise, the result 2662 was a palindrome. We decided to see if this was a pure coincidence or not. So we took another 3-digit number, reversed it, which gave a larger number, and added the two. The result was not a palindrome. We repeated the process, which resulted in another 3-digit number which was still not a palindrome. We had to repeat the process twice more to finally arrive at a 4-digit number which was a palindrome. What was the 3-digit number we started with the second time?
