Answer 2

GIVEN:

• Distance covered by the car = 874 km
• Time taken by the car = 16 hours

TO FIND:

• What is the speed of the car ?

SOLUTION:

Let the speed of the car be 's' km/hr

We know that the formula for finding the speed of the car is:-

$\large{\boxed{\bf{\star \: Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time} \: \star}}}$

According to question:-

On putting the given values in the formula, we get

$\rm{\dashrightarrow s = \cancel\dfrac{874}{16} }$

$\bf{\dashrightarrow s = 54.625 \: km/hr }$

• Speed = s = 54.625 km/hr

❝ Hence, the speed of the car is 54.625 km/hr ❞

VERIFICATION:

Put the values in the formula

$\bf{\dashrightarrow 54.625 = \cancel\dfrac{ 874}{16} }$

$\bf{\dashrightarrow 54.625 = 54.625 }$

$\rm{ [L.H.S. = R.H.S.]}$
