Practicing Success
Ashneer completes a journey in 16 hours . He travels the first half of the journey at the speed of 35 km/h and the second half of it at the speed of 45 km/h. The total distance of the journey is: |
315 kms 215 kms 630 kms 210 kms |
630 kms |
( 1st half ) : ( 2nd half ) ratio of Speed = 35 km/h : 45 km/h 7 : 9 as , Distance = Speed × Time That means ratio of speed and distance is same ratio of speed and time are reverse to each other . ( 1st half ) : ( 2nd half ) ratio of Distance = 7 : 9 ratio of Time = 9 : 7 ⇒ ( 9 + 7 ) R = 16 hours ( according to question ) ⇒ 16R = 16 hours ⇒ 1R = 1 hour Now, Total Distance = Speed × Time = (35 km/h × 9) + (45 km/h × 7) = 315 + 315 = 630 km |
