Time, Speed and Distance

Question:

The distance travelled by a person varies directly with the duration of the journey.  If the person travels 728 km in 13 hours, in how many hours will the person cover 1064 km?

Options:

15

19

23

34

Correct Answer:

19

Explanation:

When speed is constant then distance is directly proportional to time.

Hence,

Speed in both case is same, therefore,

⇒ \(\frac{728}{13}\) = \(\frac{1064}{T}\)

⇒ T = \(\frac{1064}{56}\)

⇒ T = 19 hours
