Question

A car covers 80 km in 2 hours and a bus covers 100 km in 5 hours. Which of the travels faster? ​

Answer 1

$\bf \huge \hookrightarrow \:Given :$

☞Distance Covered by Car = 80 km.

☞Time Taken by Car = 2 hours.

☞Distance Covered by bus = 100 km.

☞Time Taken by bus = 5 hours.

$\bf \huge \hookrightarrow \:To \: \: Find :$

• Which of the vehicle travels faster.

_________________________________

$\bf \LARGE \hookrightarrow \:Formula \: \: Using$

$\bf \Large \implies \: \: \:Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time}$

$\bf \huge \hookrightarrow \:Solution :$

We know that ,

First we have to find speed of vehicles .

$\bf \Large \implies \: \: \:Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time}$

☛ Speed of Car

$\bf \Large \implies \: \: \:Speed \: \: = \: \: \frac{80 }{2} \\ \\ \bf \large \implies \: \: \:Speed \: = \: 40 \: km/h$

_________________________________

☛ Speed of Bus

$\bf \Large \implies \: \: \:Speed \: = \: \frac{100 }{5} \\ \\ \bf \large \implies \: \: \:Speed \: = 20 \: km \: /h$

• Speed of car is 40 km/h

• Speed of Bus is 20/h
