Question

A traveller covered 8%of his total journey which is 50km long ,on foot. How many kilometers did he cover on foot?

Answer 1

Total distance of journey = 50 km
Distance covered =
$50 \times \frac{8}{100}$
= 4 km

Answer 2

The traveller covered 4 kilometres on foot.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's understand a few concepts:

The path driven by a particular body is known as "distance".

The rate of change of position of an object in any direction is known as "speed".

The no. of hours or minutes travelled by the object is known as "time" taken by the object to cover a certain distance with a certain speed.

The relation between distance, speed and time is:

$\boxed{\bold{Speed = \frac{Distance }{Time} }}$

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Let's solve the given problem:

The total distance of the journey = 50 km

The percentage of distance covered on foot by the traveller = 8%

Therefore,

The distance covered on foot by the traveller is,

= $8\% \:of\:50\:km$

= $\frac{8}{100} \:\times \:50\:km$

= $\frac{8}{2} \:km$

= $4 \:km$

Thus, he covered 4 kilometers on foot.
