Question
A car runs at the speed of 50 kmph when not serviced and run at 60 kmph when serviced. After servicing the car covers a certain distance in 6 hours. How much time will the car take to cover the same distance when not serviced?
Solution
To solve this problem, we need to understand the relationship between speed, distance, and time. The formula is Distance = Speed x Time.
-
First, we need to find the distance the car covers when it's serviced. We know the speed is 60 kmph and the time is 6 hours. So, the distance is 60 kmph x 6 hours = 360 km.
-
Now, we need to find out how long it takes for the car to cover the same distance when it's not serviced. We know the speed when not serviced is 50 kmph and the distance is 360 km. So, we rearrange the formula to solve for time: Time = Distance / Speed.
-
Substituting the known values into the formula, we get Time = 360 km / 50 kmph = 7.2 hours.
So, the car will take 7.2 hours to cover the same distance when not serviced.
