Question

Find the ratio of the distance covered by the car and the cyclist when it is given that the car moves 1.5 hours at 30 kmph and cyclist moves for 1 hour at 25 kmph

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi ,

We know that,

Distance = Speed × Time

1) speed of the car = s1 = 30 km / hr

Time = t1 = 1.5 hrs

Distance = d1 = s1 × t1

d1 = 30 × 1.5 = 45 km ------------- ( 1 )

2) speed of the cyclist = s2 = 25 km / hr

Time = t2 = 1 hr

Distance = d2 = 25 × 1 = 25 km --------- ( 2 )

Required ratio = ( 2) / ( 1 )

= 45 km / 25 km

= ( 5 × 9 ) / ( 5 × 5 )

= 9 / 5

Ratio = 9 : 5

I hope this will useful to you.
