A car takes 45 mins to travel from Lagos to Ibadan at an average speed of 120 km/hr.How long will it take a bus travelling at a speed of 70 km/hr to make the same trip
To calculate the time it will take for the bus to make the same trip from Lagos to Ibadan at a speed of 70 km/hr, we can use the formula:
Time = Distance / Speed
The distance between Lagos and Ibadan is the same for both the car and the bus, so we can use the same distance for both calculations.
Distance = Average Speed x Time
For the car:
120 km/hr x 0.75 hr = 90 km
Now we can calculate the time it will take for the bus to travel the same distance at a speed of 70 km/hr:
Time = 90 km / 70 km/hr = 1.29 hours
Therefore, it will take the bus approximately 1 hour and 17 minutes to make the same trip from Lagos to Ibadan at a speed of 70 km/hr.
