प्रश्न
Bus X travels a distance of 360 km in 5 hours whereas bus Y travels a distance of 476 km in 7 hours. Which
bus travels faster ?
उत्तर
We should first consider Bus X.
Distance travelled (d1) = 360 km
Time taken (d1) = 5 hr
So, we can calculate the speed as :
`"Speed" = "Distance"/"Time"`
Thus , the speed of Bus X is 72 km/h.
Similarly,
For Bus Y :
Distance travelled
Time taken (t2) = 7 hr
So , we can calculate the speed as :
`"Speed" = "Distance"/"Time"`
Thus , the speed of Bus Y is 68 km/h.
Speed of Bus X is more than of Bus Y. Hence , Bus X travels Faster .
