Question

1. An express train covers a distance of 871 1/8 km in 11 1/2 hours. Find the distance
covered by the train in an hour.​

Answer 1

Answer:

303/4 km

Step-by-step explanation:

871 1/8 km = 11 1/2

x km = 1 hour

By cross multiplication we get,

6969/8 = 23/2x

x = 6969/8 × 2/23

x = 303/4 km

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

train covers 6969/8 distance ,in 23/2 hours (converted into fraction)

speed=distance/time

speed=6969/8/23/2

=75.75

we got speed=75.75

now

distance travelled in 1 hr =speed×time

distance (d)=75.75×1

=75.75
