Question

13. Aman travelled 50 km by bus and 200 km by train. Find what percent of the total journey did he travel
by bus and what per cent by train?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Total distance travelled = 50km+200km

                                        =250km

distance travelled by bus= 50 km

percent of journey travelled by bus = (50/250)×100

= 20%

percent of journey travelled by train = (200/250)×100

=80%

Answer 2

Answer:

Bus : 20%

Train : 80%

Explanation:

Aman travelled 50 km by bus and 200 km by train.

Step 1 : Add up the distance first

That would be :

50 km + 200 km

Which makes :

250 km

Step 2 : Convert the travelling distance into fractions.

$\frac{The distance travelled by a vehicle}{Thetotal distance travelled}$ = $\frac{50}{250}$ ( Bus )

                                         =$\frac{200}{250}$ ( Train )

Step 3 : Simplify the fraction.

Bus = $\frac{50}{250}$

      = $\frac{1}{5}$

Train = $\frac{200}{250}$

        = $\frac{4}{5}$

Step 4 : Multiply the simplified fractions by 100

Bus = $\frac{1}{5}$ × 100

      = 20%

Train = $\frac{4}{5}$ × 100

        = 80%

Your final Answer :

Bus : 20%

Train : 80%
