Question

david a professional cyclist is cycling in a stadium . he cycles at the spred of 18 pm 0 per hour. if he takes 2 1/60 mins to complete one round of the track around the stadium, then what.is the length of the track.

Answer 1

Answer: Let's start by converting the time it takes to complete one round of the track to hours. David takes 2 hours and 1/60 minutes to complete one round. To convert this to hours:

2 hours + 1/60 hours = 2 + 1/60 hours = 121/60 hours

Now, we can calculate the distance of the track using the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

where:

Speed = 18 km/h (kilometers per hour)

Time = 121/60 hours

Distance = 18 km/h × 121/60 hours

To simplify the calculation, first, let's convert 121/60 hours to a decimal:

121/60 hours = 2.0167 hours (rounded to four decimal places)

Now, let's calculate the distance:

Distance = 18 km/h × 2.0167 hours ≈ 36.3006 km

So, the length of the track around the stadium is approximately 36.30 kilometers.
