Question

A train covers 430km in 5hrs.the speed of a bike is half the speed of the train.how much time will the bike take to over a distance of 301km?

Answer 1

Hello,

The distance covered by the train = 430km

Time taken = 5 hrs

We know that :-
$speed = \frac{distance}{time} \\ \\ speed = \frac{430}{5} = 86$
Speed of train is 86 km/hr

Now
Speed of bike is half of the train
So,
Speed of the bike = 86/2 = 43 km/hr

Now,
Distance covered by bike = 301 km

So we know
$time = \frac{d}{speed} \\ \\ time = \frac{301}{43} = 7$
So,.
The bike will take around 7 hours to complete the distance of 301 km
