Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If a motorist moves with a speed of 15 km/hr and covers the distance from place A to place B in 2 hours, 30 minutes, find the distance between place A and place B?

Answer 2

Here the speed and time is given

Speed = 15 km / hr

Time = 2 hours 30 minutes

We will first convert the time into hour

60 minutes = 1 hour

30 minutes = 0.5 hour

So, 2 hour 30 minutes = 2.5 hour

We have to find the distace

Speed = distance / time

       15 = distance / 2.5

 distance = 15 × 2.5

                =37.5 km

Hence, the distance between A and B will be 37.5 km
