Question
Nick drove a distance of 205 km from Town A to town B at an average speed of 82 km/h. He then drove from Town B to Town C at an average speed of 84 km/h. Find the time taken for the whole journey.
Solution
To find the total time taken for the journey, we first need to find the time taken for each leg of the journey.
-
Time is calculated by dividing distance by speed. So, for the journey from Town A to Town B, the time taken would be 205 km divided by 82 km/h, which equals approximately 2.5 hours.
-
The question does not provide the distance from Town B to Town C. However, if we knew this distance, we could calculate the time for this leg of the journey by dividing the distance by 84 km/h.
-
To find the total time taken for the whole journey, we would add the time taken for the first leg of the journey (from Town A to Town B) to the time taken for the second leg of the journey (from Town B to Town C).
Without the distance from Town B to Town C, we cannot calculate the total time for the journey.
