Given:

Speed of the bus excluding stoppage = 66 km/hr

Speed of the bus including stoppage = 55 km/hr

Formula used:

Time taken for stoppage per hour = (Difference in speeds) / (Speed excluding stoppage) × 60 minutes

Calculation:

Difference in speeds = 66 - 55 = 11 km/hr

Time taken for stoppage per hour = (11/66) × 60

⇒ Time taken for stoppage = 10 minutes

∴ The bus stops for 10 minutes per hour.
