Answer:


we \: have \: avarage \: speed= (distance)/(time \: ) \\ here \: time \: is \: in \: \: minute \: convert \: \\ it \: in \: to \: hour \\ so \: (40)/(60) \: hour \\ = (2)/(3) hour \\ distance = avarage \: speed * time \\ = 21 * (2)/(3) = 7 ×2 = 14km\\ thank \: you

☄Given:


  • \sf{Average\:speed = 21km/h}

  • \sf{Time\:taken=40\:minutes}

☄To find:


  • \sf{distance=?}

★Formula used:


\boxed{Average\:speed=(Total\:distance)/(Total\:time\:taken)}

★Solution:


\bold{\underline{\underline{As\:we\:know\:all\:the\:units\:are\:in\:hr}}}


\rm{So,40\:minutes=(40)/(60)=(2)/(3)}


\sf{\underline{\underline{Now,putting\:values\:in\:the\:given\:formula:}}}


\rm{21km/h=(Distance)/((2)/(3))}


\rm→{21×(2)/(3)=Distance}


\rm{→14=Distance}
