Question

A train covers a distance of 595km in 7hours .At the same rate ,how long will it take to covers 807.5km?

Answer 1

given :  595 km in 7 hrs

lets calculate for 1 km : 7/595 hrs

therefore for 807.5 km= 807.5 * 7/595

                                      = 9.5 hrs

Answer 2

A train covers a distance of 595 km in 7 hours

⇒ 595 km = 7 hours

Find the time needed to cover 1 km

595 km = 7 hours

1 km = 7 ÷ 595 = 1/85 hour

Find the time needed to cover 807.5 km:

1 km =  1/85 hour

807.5 km = 1/85 x 807.5 = 9.5 hours

Answer: It will take 9.5 hours
