Question

Find the speed in the following
(a) Distance = 70 km, time = 2 hours.​

Answer 1

Given:-

• Distance = 70 km
• Time = 2 hours

⠀

To find:-

• The speed?

⠀

Solution:-

⠀

★ Formula used:-

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀$\star{\boxed{\sf{\orange{speed = \dfrac{distance}{time}}}}}$

⠀

Here,

Distance = 70 km

Time = 2 hours

⠀

Therefore,

$\large{\tt{\longmapsto{speed = \dfrac{70}{2}}}}$

⠀

$\large{\tt{\longmapsto{speed = 35}}}$

⠀

Hence, the speed is 35 km per hour.
