Question

A bullock cart travels 24 km in three hours, and a train travels 120 km in two hours. determine the ratio of their speeds.

Answer 1

Speed of Bullock cart
= 24/3 kmph
= 8 kmph
Speed of train
= 120/2 kmph
= 60 kmph
Therefore ratio of speed of Bullock cart to the speed of train
= 8/60
= 2/15

Answer 2

$speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

Speed of bullock cart :-
$s = \frac{24km}{3h}$
s = 8km/h

Speed of train :-
$s = \frac{120km}{2h}$
s = 60 km / h

Ratio of their speed :-

bullock cart : train

8 : 60

2 : 15
