Question

A loaded track covers 16 km in 25 minutes. At the same speed, how far can it travel in 5 hours ?

Answer 1

Let distance covered = x then

Distance Covered : Time :: Distance Time

(in min) covered (in min)

16 km : 25 min :: x 5hr = 300 min.

(more time - more distance)

$\therefore x=\frac{16\times 300}{25}=192km$
