Question

A person can walk 3 3/5 km in a hour how much
distance will be cover in 3 1/3 hours?​

Answer 1

Answer:

12 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the person = $3\frac{3}{5}$ km/h

Time taken by the person = $3\frac{1}{3}$ h

∴ Distance covered by the person = Speed × Time = $3\frac{3}{5}$ km/h × $3\frac{1}{3}$ h = 12 km

Answer: The person will cover 12 km in $3\frac{1}{3}$ hours.

Answer 2

1st method:⤵️

First convert mixed fractions to proper fractions.

Walking speed 3 4/5 = 19/5 km per hour

Time = 2 1/2 hours = 5/2 hrs.

We know the speed formula, Speed = Distance/Time

Or Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 19/5 km/hour × 5/2 hours

Distance = 95/10 kilometer

Distance = 9.5 kilometer

Nitin will cover 9.5 kilometer in 2 1/2 hours

2nd method⤵️

By conversion of fractions into decimals, then using the above formula

Walking speed 3 4/5 = 19/5 = 3. 8 kilometer per hour =

Time = 2 1/2 hours = 5/2 = 2.5 hrs.

Distance = Walking speed × Time

Distance = 3.8 km per hour × 2.5 hours

Distance = 9.5 kilometers

Answer : Nitin will cover 9.5 kilometers in 2 1/2 hours

3rd method⤵️

Distance covered in 1 hr = 19/5 km

Distance to be covered in 5/2 hrs. = 19/5 × 5/2

Distance to be covered = 95/10

Distance to be covered = 9.5 kilometers

Answer : Nitin will cover 9.5 kilometers in 2 1/2 hours
