Answer the following:
A bus travels at v km per hour. It is going from Daspur to Beespur. After the bus has travelled 5 hours, Beespur is still 20 km away. What is the distance from Daspur to Beespur? Express it using v.
Here,
According to the question,
We know that,
Speed = v km/hr
Now,
We have to calculate the distance between Daspur to Beespur
So,
At first we need the distance travelled in 5 hours
Thus,
Distance travelled in five hours = 5 × v
= 5v
Hence,
The total distance between Daspur and Beespur = (dist. Travelled in 5 hours) + 20
= 5v + 20
