Answers
Given data : Shweta take 45 minutes to walk 5 km.
To find : Time taken by Shweta to walk 4 km at the same speed and distance coverd by Sweta in 90 minutes with same speed ?
Solution : according to given, distance covered by shweta is 5 km in 45 minutes.
Here,
→ distance = 5 km
→ time = 45 minutes = { 45/60}hr = 0.75 hr
Now, to find speed of Shweta we use formula of speed
→ speed = distance/time
→ speed = 5/0.75
→ speed = 20/3
→ speed = 6.67 km/hr
Now, to find time taken by Shweta to walk 4 km at the same speed {6.67 km/hr}.
→ speed = distance/time
→ 6.67 = 4/time
→ time = 4/6.67
→ time = 0.5997 hr
Now, to find distance coverd by Sweta in 90 minutes with same speed {6.67 km/hr}.
Here, 90 minute = {90/60}hr = 1.5 hr
→ speed = distance/time
→ 6.67 = distance/1.5
→ distance = 6.67 * 1.5
→ distance = 10.005 km
Answer : Hence the time taken by Shweta to walk 4 km at the same speed is 0.5997 hr and distance coverd by Sweta in 90 minutes with same speed is 10.005 km .
