Question
Speed of a car is 150% more than that of a bus. Find the
distance traveled by the bus in 6 hours 30 minutes if the time taken by the car to cover 960 km is 8 hours.Solution
ATQ, Time taken by the car to travel 960 km = 8 hours Speed of car = 960/8 = 120 km/h Speed of bus = 120/2.5 = 48 km/h Time taken by the bus = 6 hours + (30/60) hours = 6.5 hours Desired distance = 48 × 6.5 = 312 km
