Question

A car travels 14km in 25mins . Find out how far the car can travel in 5 hours if the speed remains the same ? ​

Answer 1

25min=25/60=5/12h

Speed:-

• Distance/time
• 14÷5/12
• 14×12/5
• 33.6km/h

Total distance in 5h

• 5(33.6)
• 168km

Answer 2

168 km

Explanation:

1 hour = 60 minutes

⇒ 5 hours = 5 × 60 = 300 minutes

We have been told the distance that the car traveled in 25 minutes.

Therefore, divide 300 minutes by 25 minutes:

`\implies \sf (300)/(25)=12`

So there are 12 'lots' of 25 minutes in 5 hours.

Therefore, to find out how far the car travels in 5 hours, multiply the distance traveled in 14 km by 12:

⇒ total distance = 12 × 14 = 168 km
