Question

Ravi walks at the uniform rate of $5km/hr$. What distance would he cover in $2$ hours $24$ minutes ?

Answer 1

Given time $t=2$ hours $24$ minutes.
$=2\frac{24}{60}$ hours [Since, $1$ hr $=60$ min]
$=2\frac{2}{5}$ hours
$\therefore t=\frac{12}{5}$hours
Speed of man $=5km/hr$
Since, we have Speed$=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}$
$\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=\text{speed}\times \text{time}$
Substituting given values, we get
$\Rightarrow \text{Distance}=5\times \frac{12}{5}$
$=12km$
Therefore, the distance covered by Ravi in $2$ hours $24$ minutes is $12km$
