Question

A bus covers 95 km in 2 hours 30 minutes with certain speed. Find the distance it cover in 4 hours and 15 minutes, if the bus travels with same speed throughout its journey.

Answer 1

Answer:

converting hours to minutes:

1 hour = 60 minutes

2 hours = 120 minutes

4 hours= 240 minutes

so, 2 hours 30 minutes = 120 minutes+30 minutes=150 minutes

so, it takes 150 minutes to cover 95km..

4 hours 15 minutes = 240 minutes+ 15 minutes = 255 minutes

so the distance covered in 255 minutes = 255×95 / 150  = 161.5km

so, the distance covered in 4 hours 15 minutes or 255 minutes is 161.5km
