Answer / deepesh kumar s
he fall asleep for the first time when the bus covered 33.3 %
ie, 1/3 of the total distance.
he slept till the half way, where the bus fall on potholes.
so the time he slept was the 50 - 33.3 = 16.7% of total journey.
When he sept again, the bus covered 2/3 of the total distance.
and slept for the rest of the journey. ie, 33.3 %;
so total portion he slept = 16.7 + 33.3 = 50%.
