Answer:

0.25hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Distance = 200km

Time = 2hrs

Now, let us find the rate which is the speed;

Speed =
(distance)/(time)

Insert parameters:

Speed =
(200)/(2) = 100km/hr

Since the speed of Imamu = 2 x speed of Mosi = 200km/hr

Time taken =
(distance)/(speed) =
(50)/(200) = 0.25hr
