Solution
The correct option is B 492 minutes
Given,
Time taken by the car to cover 1 mile = 12 minutes
Total distance to be covered = 41 miles
∴ Total time required = 41 x 12 minutes
Let us solve this using the box method.
The expanded form of (41 × 12) is:
Step 1: Draw a table in the following way.
Step 2: Fill the table by multiplying the numbers.
Finally, we add all the products.
So, the time taken by the car to travel from point 1 to point 5 is 492 minutes.
