E Correct answer
Explanation

Q1: Speed = 80/5 = 16 km/hr. Q2: Car speed = 20 km/hr (but 'car covers 160 km in the time bus covers 128 km' suggests car should be faster than bus - likely car speed is 160/t and bus is 128/t, so car speed = 160/128 × bus speed = 1.25×bus). Then bus = 20/1.25 = 16 km/hr. Both Q1 and Q2 give 16 km/hr, so Q1=Q2. Answer E is correct.
