SITA TRAVELLED BY BUS FOR 3
1 poin
HOURS 40 MINUTES AND BY
MOTORCYCLE FOR 1 HOUR 45
MINUTES. HOW LONG DID SHE SPEND
TRAVELLING?​

Answer 1

Given:

Time traveled by bus = 3 hours 40 minutes  

Time traveled by motorcycle = 1 hour 45 minutes

To find:

Total time traveled by Sita

Solution:

1 hour = 60 minutes,

Thus,

Time traveled by bus = 3 hours 40 minutes  

Total time by bus = 3 x 60 + 40

= 180 + 40

= 220 minutes

Similarly, time traveled by motorcycle = 1 hour 45 minutes

Total time by motorcycle = 1 x 60 + 45

= 60 + 45

= 105

Now, total time taken by her -  

= 220 + 105

= 325 minutes.

Answer: Thus the total time traveled by Sita is 5 hours and 25 minutes.
