Question

Bus X travels a distance of 360 km in 5 hours whereas bus Y travels a distance of 476 km in 7 hours. Which
bus travels faster ?

Answer 1

We should first consider Bus X.
Distance travelled (d₁) = 360 km
Time taken (d₁) = 5 hr

So, we can calculate the speed as :

`"Speed" = "Distance"/"Time"`

Thus , the speed of Bus X is 72 km/h. 

Similarly,

For Bus Y : 

Distance travelled

Time taken (t₂) = 7 hr

So , we can calculate the speed as : 

`"Speed" = "Distance"/"Time"`

Thus , the speed of Bus Y is 68 km/h.

Speed of Bus X is more than of Bus Y. Hence , Bus X travels Faster .
