Question

A Santro car travelled a distance of 120 kilometers in 3 hours,while a Maruti Zen car travelled a distance of 150 kilometers in 4 hours. Which car was moving faster? Please give explanation also ​

Answer 1

Answer:

Santro car is moving faster than Maruti Zen car.

Explanation:

We will know this by calculating the speeds for each of the given cars.

For Santro car—

Distance = 120 km

Time = 3 hours

=> Speed = Distance / Time = 120 / 3 = 40 km/h

For Maruti Zen car—

Distance = 150 km

Time = 4 hours

=> Speed = Distance / Time = 150 / 4 = 37.5 km/h

We see that, Speed of Santro car > Speed of Maruti Zen car

=> Santro car is moving faster than Maruti Zen car.
