1.	A bus travelled a distance of 420 km in 6 hours and a train covered a distance of 900 km in3 hours. Calculate their speed and tell which one of the two travels faster- bus or train?
Answer» ANSWER:- Speed of bus is 70 km per HOUR. Speed of train is 300 km per hour. Train TRAVELS faster than the bus. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ GIVEN:- Distance travelled by the bus in 6 hours :- 420 km Distance covered by the train in 3 hours :- 900 km TO FIND:- Speed of the bus = ? Speed of the train = ? Which one of the two travel's faster = ? SOLUTION:- Formula to find speed ↴ $\bold{ \underline {\overline{ \boxed{S = \frac{D \: (Distance)}{T\: (Time)}}}}}$ Speed of the bus = S = D/T S = D/T = 420/6 420/6 = 70 km So, the speed of the bus is 70 km per hour. Speed of the train = S = D/T S = D/T = 900/3 900/3 = 100 km So, the speed of the train is 300 km per hour. So, together the bus covers 70 Km in 1 hour and the train covers 300 Km in 1 hour. TO COMPARE:- Speed of the bus and Speed of the train Speed of bus = 70 km Speed of train = 300 km So, 300 > 70 Speed of the bus is LESSER than the speed of the train. So, the train travels faster than the train. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

A bus travelled a distance of 420 km in 6 hours and a train covered a distance of 900 km in3 hours. Calculate their speed and tell which one of the two travels faster- bus or train?

Answer»

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

GIVEN:-

Distance travelled by the bus in 6 hours :- 420 km

Distance covered by the train in 3 hours :- 900 km

TO FIND:-

Speed of the bus = ?

Speed of the train = ?

Which one of the two travel's faster = ?

SOLUTION:-

Formula to find speed ↴

$\bold{ \underline {\overline{ \boxed{S = \frac{D \: (Distance)}{T\: (Time)}}}}}$

Speed of the bus = S = D/T

S = D/T = 420/6

420/6 = 70 km

So, the speed of the bus is 70 km per hour.

Speed of the train = S = D/T

S = D/T = 900/3

900/3 = 100 km

So, the speed of the train is 300 km per hour.

So, together the bus covers 70 Km in 1 hour and the train covers 300 Km in 1 hour.

TO COMPARE:-

Speed of the bus and Speed of the train

Speed of bus = 70 km

Speed of train = 300 km

So,

300 > 70

Speed of the bus is LESSER than the speed of the train.

So, the train travels faster than the train.
