Answer:

3.75 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for finding time (how long) is t = s/v where s is distance, v is speed and t is time.

We know that the distance that a bus wants to travel is 150 km with an average speed of 40 km/h. Therefore, substitute s = 150 km and v = 40 km/h in the formula:


\displaystyle{t=\frac{150 \, \text {km}}{40 \, \text {km/h}}}\\\\\displaystyle{t=3.75 \, \text{hours}}

Therefore, it’ll take about 3.75 hours for a bus to travel 150 km distance.
