B Correct answer
Explanation

Distance = Speed * Time = 72 * 6 = 432 km. New speed = Distance / New Time = 432 / 8 = 54 km/hr.

AI explanation

Using the formula distance equals speed multiplied by time, the total distance covered is 72 multiplied by 6, giving 432 km. To cover this same distance in 8 hours, the required speed is 432 divided by 8, which equals 54 km/h.
