Solution
Original driving speed of Anita = 85.6 km/hr
Speed limit for driving = 55 km/hr
∴ Speed reduced by her to be within the speed limit
= Original driving speed of Anita − Speed limit for driving
= 85.6 km/hr − 55 km/hr
= 30.6 km/hr
85.6
− 55.0
30.6
Thus, Anita needs to reduce her speed by 30.6 km/hr to be within the speed limit.
