A car travels 200 km in 4 hours. How long will it take to travel 500 km?
Given: A car travels 200 km in 4 hours.
To do: Find how much time it will take for the car to travel 500km
Solution:
$Speed = \frac{Distance}{ Time}$
$Speed = \frac{200}{4} = 50$
Speed of car = $50$ km / hr
Which means car can cover 50 km in 1 hr.
$Time \ taken = \frac{Distance}{speed}$
Time taken to cover 500 km = $\frac{500}{50}$ = $10$
Time = $10$ hr
So, it can cover $500$ km in $10$ hr
