Solution(By Examveda Team)

$$\eqalign{ & \text{Speeds of vehicles on Day 1:} \cr & \text{A → } \frac{832}{16}\text{ km/hr}=\text{52 km/hr} \cr & \text{B → } \frac{516}{12}\text{ km/hr}=\text{43 km/hr} \cr & \text{C → } \frac{693}{11}\text{ km/hr}=\text{63 km/hr} \cr & \text{D → } \frac{552}{12}\text{ km/hr}=\text{46 km/hr} \cr & \text{E → } \frac{935}{17}\text{ km/hr}=\text{55 km/hr} \cr & \text{F → } \frac{703}{19}\text{ km/hr}=\text{37 km/hr} \cr & \cr & \text{Speed of vehicles on Day 2:} \cr & \text{A → } \frac{864}{16}\text{ km/hr}=\text{54 km/hr} \cr & \text{B → } \frac{774}{18}\text{ km/hr}=\text{43 km/hr} \cr & \text{C → } \frac{810}{18}\text{ km/hr}=\text{45 km/hr} \cr & \text{D → } \frac{765}{15}\text{ km/hr}=\text{51 km/hr} \cr & \text{E → } \frac{546}{14}\text{ km/hr}=\text{39 km/hr} \cr & \text{F → } \frac{636}{12}\text{ km/hr}=\text{53 km/hr} \cr} $$

$$\eqalign{ & \text{Required %} \cr & = \left(\frac{636}{703}\times100\right)\% \cr & = \frac{63600}{703}\% \cr & = 90.46\% \cr & \approx 90\% \cr} $$
