A truck covers 448 km in 8 hours. The average speed of a bicycle is `1/4` th of the average speed of the truck. How much distance will the bicycle cover in 7 hours?

Solution

98 km

Explanation:

Average speed of truck = `"Distance covered"/"Time taken"`

= `448/8`

= 56 kmph

∴ Average speed of bicycle = `1/4 xx 56` = 14 kmph

∴ Distance covered by the bicycle in 7 hours = Speed x Time

= 14 × 7

= 98 km
