Question

During a certain period of time, a car can cover the distance of 120 miles, going at an average speed of 55 mph. What distance over the same period of time would cover a truck, going at an average speed of 44 mph?

Answer 1

keeping the time as constant as both travel during same period of time then
120/55=x/44
which gives us x=96 miles.
Therefore the truck will cover 96 miles in the same period of time

Answer 2

$120 \: miles \: in \: 55mph \\ 1miles \: in \: 55 \div 120 \\ in \: a \: speed \: of \: 44mph \\ = 120 \div 55 \times 44 \\ = 96miles$
I think it is the right ans..
