Calculating the Speed given the Distance and Time

Answer:


4.\overline{4} \frac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm{min}}\\

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed,
r, is calculated by
r = (d)/(t)\\ where
d is the distance traveled and
t is the time. We are given the distance traveled of the bus,
200 \mathrm{km}, and the time it has traveled,
45 \mathrm{min}. So, the speed of the bus,
r, is calculated as...


r =\frac{200 \mathrm{km}}{50 \mathrm{min}} \\ r = \frac{40 \mathrm{km}}{9 \mathrm{min}}

The speed of the bus is
\frac{40 \mathrm{km}}{9 \mathrm{min}}\\ or
4.\overline{4} \frac{\mathrm{km}}{\mathrm{min}}\\.
