1.1111111111

Step-by-step explanation:

v=s/t

t=8:30-7:00=1:30

convert to second=5400second

s=60km covert to meter=6000

6000/5400=1.11111111

Answer:

The answer is 40 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

  • distance (s) covered by the bus = 60 km

To Find;

  • The average speed of the bus

Formula;

  • Average velocity (v) = Distance ÷ Time

Now,

Time (t) taken = 8:30 am – 7:00 am = 1 ½ hour = 3/2 hour

Here,

v = s/t

v = 60 ÷ 3/2

v = 60 × 2 ÷ 3

v = 20 × 2

v = 40 km/h

Thus, The average speed of the bus is 40 km per hour
