Question

You are driving to your grandparents which is 95km away. If I drive at an average speed of 85km/h, how long will it take to get there?

Answer 1

Answer:

Time = 1.118 hours

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Distance = 95 km

Speed = 85 km/h

To find how long will it take to get there;

Speed can be defined as distance covered per unit time. Speed is a scalar quantity and as such it has magnitude but no direction.

Mathematically, speed is given by the formula;

$Speed = \frac{distance}{time}$

Making time the subject of formula, we have;

$Time = \frac{distance}{speed}$

Substituting into the equation, we have;

$Time = \frac{95}{85}$

Time = 1.118 hours
