Question

A car travels 24km in 3 hours and a train travels 120km in 2hours. Find the ratio of their speed.​

Answer 1

Answer is the ratio 2:15

Work Shown:

speed = distance/time

car's speed = (24 km)/(3 hr) = 8 km per hr

train's speed = (120 km)/(2 hr) = 60 km per hr

The ratio of the car's speed to the train's speed, in that order, is 8:60 which reduces to 2:15 after dividing both parts by the GCF 4.
