A plane is travelling at an average speed of 325 km/h. How far does the plane travel (km) in 30.0 minutes?

Sagot :

Given

A plane 325 km/h

in 30m

Procedure

First let's convert the 30 min into hours in order to be able to operate with the speed

[tex]30\text{ min}\cdot\frac{1\text{ h}}{60\text{ min}}=0.5\text{ h}[/tex]

Now let's calculate the distance traveled by the aircraft in that time.

[tex]\begin{gathered} x=325\text{ km/h}\cdot0.5\text{ h} \\ x=162.5\text{ km} \end{gathered}[/tex]

The total distance traveled by plane in 30 min is 162.5 km.
