The Correct Option is D

Solution and Explanation

Considering that the trip took place across a total of 26862 kilometers and lasted for 8 hours.
The kilometers traveled up to immediately before the trip is 26862 - 8s, which should likewise be a palindrome, if the average speed of the vehicle during the journey is's'.
Among the choices the reading will be \(26862 - 110\times8 = 25982\) (Not a palindrome) 
If s = 110 the reading will be \(26862 - 100\times8 = 26062\)
If s = 100 it's a palindrome.
=> s = 100 is the right choice. 
The correct answer is 100.
