Hello there!

The ship traveled 1300 kilometers in total. But, at rate of 90 kilometers per hour. So what is the rate of the ship for 1300 kilometers.

This is very easy my friend .... all you have to do is this

90 K >>>> 1 hour
1300 k >>>> x ( x represent the hour we are looking for)
Cross multiply
90x = 1300
Divide both sides by 90
90x/90 = 1300/90
x = 14.44 hr

Answer : It take the ship 14.44 hr to travel 1300 kilo
The correct option is D


Good luck and enjoy life!
