Question

11. A car is travelling at the average speed of 50 km/hr. How much distance would it travel in
1 hour 12 minutes?
​

Answer 1

Answer:

The car is travelling at the average speed of 50 km/hr means it is travelling 50 kilometers in 1 hour.

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 hour and 12 minutes = 60 minutes + 12 minutes = 72 minutes

In 60 minutes car travels 50 kilometers

In 1 minute it travels = 50/60 kilometers

In 72 minutes it will travel = 50/60 × 72 kilometers

50/60 × 72

=50/5 × 6

= 10 × 6

= 60 kilometers.

Thus in 1 hour 12 minutes, the car will travel 60 kilometers at the speed of 50 Km/hr

Answer in 1 hour 12 minutes, the car will travel 60 kilometers at the speed of 50 Km/hr
