explain me please. ​

Answer 1

Answer:

2:45 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Aim: To find the time at which the motorist reached his destination.

To answer this, we must know the formula for time:

$time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

We can called distance as (d), speed as (s) and time as (t)

Given:

- Distance = 150 km

- Speed = 60 km/h

Time = $\frac{150}{60}$

        = 2.5 hours

Therefore, time taken is 2.5 hours or 2 hours 30 minutes (2:30).

He left at 11:30 AM and stopped for 45 minutes of the way. So that will be:

11:30 + 0:45 = 12:15

Now, adding the time spent in travelling:

12:15 + 2:30 = 2:45

Therefore, he reached his destination at 2:45 PM.
