A car covers a distance in 40 minutes with an average speed of 60 km/h. What should be the average speed to cover the same distance in 25 minutes?

Explanation

A car covers a distance in 40 min with an average speed

=60 km/h= 60

60×1000 m/min

In 1 min the same distance can be cover with speed = 60

60×1000×40 =4000 m/min

In 25 min, the same distance can be cover with speed = 

25

4000

 =1600 m/min=1000

1600

 ×60=16×6=96 km/hr
