Question

Lola takes the train from Paris to Nice. The distance between the two cities is about 921,000 meters. If the train travels at a speed of 307 kilometers per hour, how long will it take Lola to travel from Paris to Nice

Answer 1

Distance =rate/time so your answer is 3 hours first you have to convert meters to kilometers 921000 meters = 921 Km so you have like terms to calculate so your distance becomes 921 Km then divide by the speed 907÷3 = 3 so your answer is 3 hrs

Answer 2

Answer: It will take 1.75 minutes to travel from Paris to Nice.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance between the two cities = 921,000 meters

Since we know that

1 km = 1000 meters

`1\ m=(1)/(1000)\ km\\\\921000\ m=(921000)/(1000)\ km=921\ km`

Speed at which the train travels = 307 km/hr

As we know the formula for time taken:

`Time=(Distance)/(Speed)=(921)/(307)=0.029\ hours\\\\Time=0.029* 60=1.75\ minutes`

Hence, it will take 1.75 minutes to travel from Paris to Nice.
