Question

A cyclist covers 14⅖ kms in 2¼ hours.What is the speed of the cyclist.​

Answer 1

Answer:

speed = $\frac{32}{5}$ = 6.4 Km / hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = 14⅖ kms = 72/5 Kms

Time = 2¼ hours = 9/4 hours

speed = distance / time

speed = $\frac{72}{5}$ ÷ $\frac{9}{4}$

speed = $\frac{72}{5}$ × $\frac{4}{9}$

speed = $\frac{32}{5}$ = 6.4 Km / hr
