$$\eqalign{ & {\text{Due}}\,{\text{to}}\,{\text{stoppages,}}\,{\text{it}}\,{\text{covers}}\,{\text{9}}\,{\text{km}}\,{\text{less}} \cr & {\text{Time}}\,{\text{taken}}\,{\text{to}}\,{\text{cover}}\,{\text{9}}\,{\text{km}} \cr & = \left( {\frac{9}{{54}} \times 60} \right)\min \cr & = 10\ \text{minutes} \cr} $$
