Question

bus x travels a distance of 360 km in 5 hours whereas bus y travels a distance of 476 km in 7 hours . which bus travels faster? give sol.

Answer 1

It is important to find the speed of the buses to impart clarity to the answers:

Distance travelled by the Bus X = 360Km

Total time taken to complete the journey = 5 hours

Speed of the bus X = 360/5 = 72 Km/hr

Distance travelled by the bus Y =476 Km

Total taken by the bus Y=7 hours

Speed of the bus Y=476/7=68Km/hr

Since the speed of the bus X> Speed of the bus Y Bus X moves faster

Answer 2

Answer:

it is important that first we should know the formula of speed,

Explanation:

So,

Distance travelled by bus x= 360km

Total time taken to complete the journey= 5hours

speed of bus x=distance/ time = 360/5=72km

Distance travelled by bus y= 476km

Time taken to complete the journey = 7hours

speed of bus y=distance/time = 476/7= 68km

£ The speed of bus x> speed of bus y

.. Bus x moves faster
