Question

17. Train A travelled 120 km in 3 hours whereas Train B travelled 180 km in 5 hours. Calculate the speed of each train. Which train travelled faster?


Help me​

Answer 1

Answer:

speed of train A= distance/time

= 120/3

= 40km/hr

speed of train B = distance/time

=180/5

= 36km/hr

Ans. Train A will travel faster

Answer 2

Answer:

Speed of train A is 40km/hr and speed of train B is 36 km/hr. Since speed of train A is more, train A will travel faster.

Explanation:

Speed = Distance/Time

In case of train A,

Distance = 120km

Time taken = 3hr

therefore,

speed = Distance/Time

= 120km/3hr

= 40km/hr

In case of train B,

Distance = 180km

Time taken = 5hr

therefore,

speed = Distance/Time

= 180km/5hr

= 36km/hr

therefore,

speed of train A is 40km/hr and speed of train B is 36 km/hr. Since speed of train A is more, train A will travel faster.

Hope it helps.....Thank you
