Question

A car moving at an average speed of 50 km/h starts from Nashik at 11 am. When will it reach Lonavala which is 200 km away from Nashik.

Answer 1

Given,

Speed of the car = 50km/h

Starting time of the journey = 11 am

Total distance of journey = 200 kilometres

To find,

Finishing time of the journey.

Solution,

First of all, we have to calculate the total time taken tor the journey, by the following mathematical formula,

Total time taken = Total distance/Speed = 200/50 = 4 hours

Now,we need to add 4 hours with the starting time,to get the finishing time of the journey.

Finishing time = 11 am + 4 hours = 3 pm

(after 11:59 am ,the time shifts to pm).

Hence,the finishing time of the journey is 3 am.
