Question

A car must cover a distance of 300 km in 3 hours. However, for the first 2

hours it only travels 150 km. At what speed must it travel for the rest of the
distance in order to complete the journey on time?

Answer 1

150 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

After the first two hours, you have traveled 150km (given) which means that you still have 300km - 150km = 150km left to travel. Since you have already traveled 2 hours, that means you must travel the remaining 150km in 3hours - 2hours = 1hour. Assuming the answer is in km/hour, you will need to travel at a speed of 150km/1h = 150km/h for the remaining of the distance.
