Answer 1

Let the distance travelled by the truck in 5 hours be x km.

We know, 1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 5 hours = (5 × 60) minutes = 300 minutes

The given information in the form of a table is as follows.

Distance travelled (in km)	14	x
Time (in min)	25	300

The distance travelled by the truck and the time taken by the truck are directly proportional to each other. Therefore,

`14/25 =x/300`

`x = (14xx300)/25 = 168`

Hence, the distance travelled by the truck is 168 km.
