Question

The ratio between the speeds of two buses is 5 : 3. It the Ist bus runs 400 km in 8 h, then find the speed of the 2nd bus.
(a) 30 km/h
(b) 15 km/h
(c) 27 km/h
(d) 27 km/h

Answer 1

the first bus runs 400km in 8 hours

so, speed = distance / time

=400km/8h

=50km/h

As we know the ratio of speed of the two buses 5:3

then the ratio = 50/5=10

so the speed of 2nd bus=10*3=30km/h

Answer 2
