===================================


\large \sf \underline{Problem:}

  • The distance between two cities is 144km, it takes me 3hours to travel between these cities. What is my total speed? Show you're solution.

===================================


\large \sf \underline{Answer:}


\huge \qquad \quad \sf{48km/h}

===================================


\large \sf \underline{Solution:}

Given:


  • \sf{Distance(d) = 144 km}

  • \sf{Time(t) = 3 hours}

  • \sf{Speed(s) = \: ?}


: \implies \sf \quad{s = (d)/(t) }


: \implies \sf \quad{s = (144)/(3)}


: \implies \sf \quad{\underline{\underline{\pmb{48 \: km/h}}}}

The variables of speed, distance and time has a correlation on one another. In finding the speed, you should divide the distance to time because speed is inversely proportional to distance and time.
