Question

At 07.00 a.m. the odometer of a car reads 25777. What is the distance covered by the
car and its speed when the clock reads 09.15 a.m. and the odometer reads 25867?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

Reading of odometer at 7 am =25877

Reading of odometer at 9:15=25777 so distance travelled by car= 25877-25777= 90km

Answer 2

The distance convered = final odometer reading - Initial odometer reading

The distance covered = 25867 - 25777 = 90km

Time taken = 2 hours & 15 minutes i.e 2.25 hrs

$speed = \frac{distance}{time} \\ = \frac{90}{2.25} \\ = 40 \: km \: per \: hour$
