Question

A train is moving at a uniform speed of $80$ km/h. It will cover a distance of _____ in $15$ mins.

• A. 20 km
• B. 15 km
• C. 18 km

Answer 1

The correct option is A 20 km

Given,
Speed of the train is $80$ km/h.

Time $=15$ mins $=\frac{15}{60}$ hours $=\frac{1}{4}$ hours

We know that Speed $=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$

so, Distance $=$ Speed $\times$ Time

$\therefore$ Distance $=80\times \frac{1}{4}=20$ km
