Question

the maximum speed of train is 90 km/hr .it takes 10 hrs to cover a distance of 500 km find the ratio of its average speed to maximum speed​

Answer 1

Answer:

ratio is 90:50

thus...... 9:5 is correct answer

Answer 2

Answer:

Ratio of its average speed to maximum speed is 5 : 9.

Explanation:

Given:

• Maximum speed of train is 90 km/hr

• Total distance covered = 500 km

To find:

Ratio of its average speed to maximum speed.

Solution:

We need to find the ratio of its average speed to maximum speed. We already know the maximum speed. So, we need to find average speed first.

We know that,

Average speed = Total distance/time

= 500/10 = 50 km/hr.

Now, ratio of average speed to maximum speed = 50 : 90 = 5 : 9

5 : 9 is the required ratio.
