Question

If a car covers a certain distance in 40 minutes and a bike covers the same distance in 55
minutes, then who is travelling in higher speed?

Answer 1

Answer:

Therefore, the car is travelling faster than the bike.

Explanation:

Let the distance be x m.

Time taken by the car to move x m = 40 minutes

Time taken by the bike to move x m = 55 minutes

Speed of the car = x/40

Speed of the bike = x/55

We know that x/40 > x/55

(If the denominator is smaller than the denominator of the other fraction then the smaller denominator fraction will be higher in value as a whole).

Answer 2

Answer:

The car is travelling in higher speed.

Explanation:

Time taken by the car to move x m = 40 minutes

Time taken by the bike to move x m = 55 minutes

Speed of the car = x ÷ 40

Speed of the bike = x ÷ 55

We know that x ÷ 40  >  x÷55
