Question

The train is moving at a uniform speed of 80 km/h. How far will it go in 15 minutes?

• A. 10 km
• B. 15 km
• C. 20 km
• D. 13.33 km

Answer 1

The correct option is C

20 km

Given that the train is moving at a uniform speed of 80 km/h.

Time taken = 15 minutes

= $\frac{15}{60}$ h

= $\frac{1}{4}$ h

$\because Distance=Speed\times time$

$\Rightarrow$ Distance travelled in 15 minutes = 80 km/h $\times$ $\frac{1}{4}$ h

= 20 km
