Question

Harish

covers
3/10
of the distance between two cities in
1 4/5
hours. If he travels at the same speed, how much of the total distance would he cover in
3 1/5
hours?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Distance traveled in
`1(4)/(5)` hours =
`(3)/(10)`

Distance traveled in 1 hour =
`(3)/(10)` ÷
`1(4)/(5)`

`=(3)/(10)` ÷
`(9)/(5)`

`= (3)/(10)*(5)/(9)\\\\=(1)/(2)*(1)/(3)\\\\=(1)/(6)`

distance traveled in 3 1/5 hours =
`(1)/(6)*3(1)/(5)`

=
`=(1)/(6)*(8)/(5)\\\\=(1)/(3)*(4)/(5)\\\\=(4)/(15)`
