Question

Omani drives 66 miles in 1.5 hours

Adedi drives 56 km in 1 hour 15 min
Workout the difference between their average speeds km/h

1 mile = 1.6 km

Answer 1

The answer would be 25.6km/h

Answer 2

25.6 km/h

Explanation:

Omani:

First, 1.5 hours = 1 hour and 30 minutes

and 66 miles = 105.6 km (66 x 1.6 = 105.6)

105.6 / 1.5 = 70.4 km/h

Omani's speed is 70.4 km/h

Adedi:

1 hour and 15 minutes is 1.25 hours

she drives 56 km in 1.25 hours

So 56 / 1.25 = 44.8 km/h

Adedi's speed is 44.8 km/h

Difference:

70.4 - 44.8 = 25.6 km/h

Omani is faster than Adedi with 25.6 km/h
