Answer :

2 hours 36 minutes

Step-by-step explanation :

speed = distance / time

Distance = 150 km

time = 1 hour 30 minutes

= 1,5 hours


speed = (150 \: km)/(1.5 \: hours)


speed = 100 \: km/hour

Answer :

How long will it take the car to cover a distance of 260 km at the same average speed ?

Time = Distance/Speed

= 260 km / 100 km/hour

= 2,6 hours

____________________

to convert hours to hours and minutes we can multiply by 60.

2, 6 hours

2 hours and 0,6 hours

0,6 = 3/5

3/5 × 60

60 ÷ 5 × 3

36 minutes

2,6 hours = 2 hours 36 minutes
