Question

a man walks a certain distance at a certain speed. had he walked (1/2) km/hr faster, he would have taken 3 hours longer. Find the distance​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that, a man walks a certain distance at a certain speed.

• Speed of man = 1/2km/hr
• Time taken by Man = 3 hrs

Now, According to the Question's Statement!

We have to find the distance covered by man.

Distance covered by man = Speed × Time

Distance covered by man = 1/2 × 3 km

Distance covered by man = 3/2 km

Therefore, 3/2 km is distance covered by man.

Answer 2

Solution :

Given,

Speed of the man = 1/2 km/h

Time taken by the man = 3 h

Now,

For finding the distance covered by the man

By using the formula of distance

s = v × t

Here,

"s" means distance covered by the man.

"v" means speed of the man.

"t" means time taken by the man.

=> s = v × t

=> s = 1/2 × 3

=> s = 3/2

=> s = 1.5

.°. s = 1.5 km

So, the distance covered by the man is 1.5 km.

Answer : 1.5 km
