Question

Alex was riding his bike at a speed of 47 km per hour. How much distance he must have covered after 4 hours ?

• A. 186 km
• B. 188 km
• C. 187 km
• D. 185 km

Answer 1

The correct option is B 188 km

Given, Speed = 47 km per hour
Time of travel = 4 hours


In 1 hour, the distance travelled is 47 km.

In 2 hours, the distance travelled will be
= 47 + 47
= 94 km

In 3 hours, the distance travelled will be
= 47 + 47 + 47
= 141 km

In 4 hours, the distance travelled will be
= 47 + 47 + 47 + 47
= 188 km
