Question

A and B start from the same point and at the same time with speeds 15 km/h and
12 km/h respectively, find the distance between A and B after 6 hours if both
move in :
a) same direction.
b) the opposite direction.

Answer 1

Answer:-

a)152 km

b)8 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we have the speeds of both that are 15 km/h and 12km/h.

these are the speed of A and B caught up in 1 hour , so we have to find the distance covered by them in 6 hours.

Distance covered by A= 15  x 6  = 80km

Distance covered by B= 12 x  6=72 km

Now that, part is done.

a) same direction

80 +72 = 152km is the distance between them.

b) opposite direction

80 - 72 = 8km is the distance between them.
