Time, Speed and Distance

Question:

The speed of a train is $2\frac{1}{6}$ times the speed of a car. The car covers 486 km in 9 hours. How much distance will the train cover in 6 hours?

Options:

612 km

702 km

732 km

712 km

Correct Answer:

702 km

Explanation:

According to question ,

Ratio of            Train        Bus

Speed               13      :     6

Speed = \(\frac{Distance }{Time}\)

= \(\frac{486 }{9}\)

= 54 km/h

Now ,

6R = 54

1R = 9

13R = 13 × 9 = 117 km/h

Now , Distance = Speed × Time

= 117 × 6 = 702 km
