distance covered by 24minutes=0.916×24

=22km

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the question, the car can cover 55 km in one hour.

i.e, i hour = 60 minutes

In 60 minutes, the car travels 55 km

So, in 1 minute (1 minute is 1/60 hours) the car travels = 55/1 = 55 km/h.

We need to find the hours for 24 minutes

So, 24 minutes = 1/60 x 24

                           = 24/60

                           = 12/30

                           = 6/15

                           = 2/5 h

distance travelled in 2/5 hours = 55 x 2/5

                                                      = 22 km
