Question

A loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes. If the speed remains the same, how far can it
travel in 5 hours?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that a loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes. in 300 minutes, a loaded truck can travel 14*300/25 km, i.e., 168 km. Hence, that truck can travel 168 km in 5 hours. So distance covered in 5 hrs = 33.6 * 5 = 168 km.

Answer 2

Answer:

168 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes.

We need to find how far can travel in 5 hours .

Converting 5 hours into minutes

5 hours = 5×60 minutes

=300 minutes

Let truck travel X km in 300 minutes.

Now,as distance increases, the time taken to travel is also increases.

Therefore,Distance and time are in Direct Proportion.

$\frac{14}{25} = \frac{x}{300}$

$\frac{14}{25 } \times 300 = x$

$14 \times 12 = x$

$168 = x$

$\: x= 168$

Therefore, Truck can travel 168 km in 5 hours.
