Question

A truck can cover a certain distance in 6 hours at the speed of 48 km per hour if the speed of the truck is reduced to 36 km per hour how much time will take for the truck to travel the same distance

Answer 1

Given,

• Speed of the truck (S₁) = 48 km/h

• Time taken (T₁) = 6 h

From this we can calculate the distance:

$\boxed{\sf {Distance={Speed\times Time}}}$

$\sf{\implies Distance=48\times 6}$

$\sf{\implies Distance=288 \ km}$

Now the speed of the truck is reduced to 36 km\h.

$\sf{\implies New \ speed=48-36}$

$\sf{\implies New \ speed=12 \ km}$

Now we have to find the time taken:

$\boxed{\sf {Time=\dfrac{Distance}{Speed}}}$

$\sf {\implies Time=\dfrac{288}{12}}$

$\sf {\implies Time= 24 \ h}$

$\boxed{\sf {\therefore Time \ taken = 24 \ hours}}$
