A Correct answer
Explanation

Statement I: Bus speed = 220/4 = 55 km/hr. Car speed = 4 × 55 = 220 km/hr. This gives the answer directly. Statement II involves bus, train, and jeep speeds but doesn't give any absolute values or time-distance relationships - only relative comparisons. Statement I alone is sufficient. Option A is correct.
