Question

a car takes 2 hours to reach a destination by travelling A 60 kilometre per hour how long will it take while travelling at 80 km per hour

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the car takes x hours to reach a destination by travelling at the speed of 80 km/h. Then,

Speed (in km/hr) 60 80

Time (in hours) 2 x

Clearly, more the speed, less will be the time taken. So, it is a case of inverse proportion.

∴60×2=80×x⇒x=

80

60×2

=

2

3

Hence, the time taken will be 1
