Question

Distances travelled by Hamid and Akhtar in an hour are 9 km and 12 km. Find the ratio of speed of Hamid to the speed of Akhtar.

Answer 1

The distance travelled in an hour by a certain object is called the speed of that object.

Distance travelled by Hamid in one hour = 9 km

Distance travelled by Akhtar in one hour = 12 km

Hamid’s speed = 9 km/hr

Akhtar’s speed = 12 km/hr

Ratio speed of Hamid to the speed of Akhtar = `9/12 = 3/4`
