Given,
Speed of the car = 60 km/h
Time taken to reach the destination = 9 hours
To find,
The increase in the speed to cover the same distance in 6 hours.
Solution,
The required speed to cover the same distance in 6 hours will be 90 km/h.
We can easily solve this problem by following the given steps.
According to the question,
Speed of the car = 60 km/h
Time taken to reach the destination = 9 hours
We know that the formula to find the speed is as follows:
Speed = Distance/Time taken
Distance = Speed × Time taken
Distance = (60×9) km
Distance = 540 km
Now, in the new case,
Required speed = distance/time
Speed = 540/6
Speed = 90 km/h
Hence, the required speed to cover the same distance in 6 hours should be 90 km/h.
