Answer:
45:166
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance covered by an areoplane in 1hr.40min.=1350units
Distance covered by an areoplane in 1min.=1350/60+40=1350/100=13.5km
Distance covered by an areoplane in 1hr.=13.5×60=810km
Distance covered by an helicopter in 2hr.40min.=600km.
Distance covered by an helicopter in 2hr.40min.=600/(2×60)+40=600/160=3.75km
Distance covered by an helicopter in 1hr.=3.75×60=225km
Distance covered by an helicopter:Distance covered by an areoplane=810:225km/hr. =45:166km/hr.

Given:-
- Time taken by the aeroplane to cover the distance = 1 hr 40 min.
- Distance covered by the aeroplain = 1350 km.
- Time taken by the helicopter to cover the distance = 2 hr 40 min.
- Distance covered by the aeroplain = 600 km.
To find:-
- Find the ratio of the speed of the aeroplain and helicopter..?
Solutions:-
- Let the speed of the aeroplane be 's' km/hr.
- Time taken = 1 hr 40 min
- Distance covered = 1350 km
Time = 1 hr 40 min
=> 1 + 40/60 hr
=> 60 + 40/60 hr
=> 100/60 hr
=> 5/3 hr
The speed of the aeroplane.
Speed = Distance/Time taken
=> S = 1350 × 3/5 km/hr
=> S = 810 km/hr
Speed of the aeroplane = 810 km/hr
Now,
- Let the speed of the helicopter be 's' km/hr.
- Time taken = 2 hr 40 min.
- 2 hr 40 min distance covered = 600 km.
Time = 2 hr 40 min
=> 2 + 40/60 hr
=> 120 + 40/60 hr
=> 160/60 hr
=> 8/3 hr
The speed of the helicopter.
Speed = Distance/Time taken
=> S = 600 × 3/8
=> S = 225 km/hr.
Speed of the helicopter = 225 km/hr.
So,
Ratio of aeroplane and helicopter = Speed of the aeroplane/Speed of the helicopter
=> R = 810 : 225
Hence, the ratio of aeroplane and helicopter is 810 : 225.
