Answer:
Answer: 160
Step-by-step explanation:
Total time taken = 5hrs
To prove: Total time taken = Time taken to cover 1st part + Time taken to cover second part
Let the distance travelled in 2nd part (80kmph) be 160km then,
The distance travelled in 1st part (30kmph) = Total distance - Distance travelled in 2nd part (in 80kmph) = 250 - 160 = 90
Therefore, Distance = Speed x Time. Similarly, Time = Distance / Speed
1st part (30kmph): Time = 90 / 30 = 3hrs
2nd part (80kmph): Time = 160 / 80 = 2hrs
Time taken for 1st part + 2nd part = 3 + 2 = 5hrs =Total time taken
Therefore, LHS = RHS
Hence Anoop covered 160km in 80kmph.
Given :- Anoop covered a part of a total distance of 250 km at 30kmph and the remaining part at 80 kmph. He covered the entire distance in 5hours . Find the distance he covered at 80kmph.(in km).
1.)100
2.)180
3.)160
4.)120
Solution :-
Let us assume that, he covered x km distance at 80km/h and rest (250 - x) km at 30 km/h .
then,
→ Time taken at 80km/h + Time taken at 80 km/h = 5 hours.
So,
→ (x/80) + (250 - x)/30 = 5
→ {3x + 8(250 - x)}/240 = 5
→ 3x + 2000 - 8x = 240 * 5
→ (-5x) = 1200 - 2000
→ (-5x) = (-800)
→ x = 160 km. (Option 3) (Ans.)
Hence, The Distance he covered at 80km/h is 160 km.
