10.A loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes. If the speed remains the same, how far can it travel in 5 hours?


Answer :

Given: Truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes.So, let x km be travelled in 5 hours.
And,We can see that this is the case of direct proportion,So we have

\(\frac{14}{25}=\frac{x}{5}\)

\(\Rightarrow x= 14\times\frac{60}{5}=14\times 12 \)

\(\Rightarrow x=168\)

Hence, for 5 hours of travelling, times taken= 5 hours
