pls answer correctly ​

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

150:5=180:x

product of means = product of extremes

5×180=150×x

x=1505×180

x=150900

x=6

Answer 2

ANSWER:

14.4 hrs.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:

Given that a person travels 150km in 12 hours. We need to find out the time taken by him to travel 180 km.

Let's say that the time taken by him is x hrs.

Now,

Speed = Distance/Time

Speed of a person when he travels 150 km in 12 hrs:

Speed = 150/12

Similarly,

Speed of person when he travels 180 km in x hrs:

Speed = 180/x

Since, the speed is same in both the case. So,

→ 150/12 = 180/x

→ 150x = 12(180)

→ x = 12(180)/150

→ x = 4(18)/5

→ x = 72/5

→ x = 14.4

Therefore, the time taken by the person to travel 180 km is 14.4. hrs.
