Answer 2

Answer:

213/5

Step-by-step explanation:

We should convert the mixed fractions to normal fractions

189 * 3 + 1 / 3 = 568/3

4 * 9 + 4 / 9 = 40/9

= 568/3 divided by 40/9

we can do the reciprocal method

= 568/3 * 9/40

as it is multiplication, we can do cross multiplication

9 is divisible by 3

so, 568/1 * 3/40 = 1704/40

now let's make it into the simplest form

1704/40 divided by 4 = 426/10

426/10 divided by 2 =  213/5

as 5 is a prime number, we can't divide anymore

no we should convert it to mixed fraction by doing Division

213/5 in mixed fraction is 42 3/5

so, the Total Distance covered by the Car in 1 hour is 42 3/5 km
