उत्तर

By travelling at a speed of 48 kilometres per hour, a car can finish a certain journey in 10 hours. To cover the same distance in 8 hours, the speed of the car should be 60 km/h.

Explanation:

∵ Speed of the car = 48 km/h

And time taken by car = 10 h

∴ Distance = Speed × Time

= 48 × 10

= 480 km

If car need to cover 480 km in 8 h, then

Required speed = `480/8` = 60 km/h   ....`[∵ "Speed" = "Distance"/"Time"]`

Hence, 60 km/h
