Question

A cyclist moves at uniform speed. If he covet 85km 705 m in 5 hours , what distance will be covered in 8 hours

Answer 1

GIVEN: Cyclist covers 85Km 705m in 5 hours.

To find:  Total distance covered in 8 hours.

SOLUTIONS:

    As the cycle is in a uniform motion so it will travel the same amount of distance in a unit of time.

By using the unitary method we can find the distance travelled in 1 hour.

If cyclist move 85705m(85km 705m) in 5 hours.

Distance covered in one hour= 85705/5= 17141m

Hence, He travels 17141 km in 1 hour.

So, distance travelled by the cyclist in 8 hour= 17141 X 8= 137128m

So, the cyclist travelled 137128(137Km 128m) in 8 hour.
