1). Find the distance covered by a train moving at speed of 80 km/h in 12 hours. How far she will travel in 3 more hours with same speed.
2). A boy walks from his house to his school. If he walks at a speed of 22 km/h, he reaches school in 30 minutes. How far is the school from his house? Find the distance between his house and his school.
1). Speed of train = 80 km/h
Time taken by train = 12 hrs
Distance covered by the train = speed × time
(80 × 12) km
= 960 km
If time is 3 hours more and speed is same, then,
Time = 12 + 3 = 15 hrs
Speed = 80 km/h
Distance= speed × time = (80 × 15) km
= 1200 km
2). Speed of that boy = 22 km/h
Time taken by him to reach his school = 30 minutes = hrs
Distance between his house and the school =
speed × time
(22 × ) km
= 11 km
So, school is 11 km far from the boy's house.
- Distance = Speed × Time
- Speed = Distance ÷ Time
- Time = Distance ÷ Speed
