A bus cover 320 km distance in 5 hours, and speed of a car 3/8 of the speed of bus. Find the ratio of distance cover by bus in 6 hours to distance cover by car in five hours?
Information Given:
Bus covers 320 km in 5 hours
Speed of car is 3/8 of speed of bus
Find ratio: (distance covered by bus in 6 hours) / (distance covered by car in 5 hours)
Concept/Formula Used:
Speed = Distance/Time
Distance covered = Speed × Time
Explanation:
Speed of bus = 320/5 = 64 km/hr
Distance covered by bus in 6 hours = 64 × 6 = 384 km
Speed of car = 3/8 × 64 = 24 km/hr
Distance covered by car in 5 hours = 24 × 5 = 120 km
Required ratio = 384/120 = 32/10 = 16 : 5
