1.A car travels 175 km at an average speed of 35 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 5 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 175 ÷ 35
  2. = 5 h = 5 hours
2.A car travels 210 km at an average speed of 105 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 2 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 210 ÷ 105
  2. = 2 h = 2 hours
3.A train travels at 40 km/h for 5 hours. How far does it travel?

Answer: 200 km

  1. time = 5 h
  2. distance = speed × time = 40 × 5
  3. = 200 km
4.A train travels at 25 km/h for 2 hours. How far does it travel?

Answer: 50 km

  1. time = 2 h
  2. distance = speed × time = 25 × 2
  3. = 50 km
5.A car travels 280 km at an average speed of 70 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 4 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 280 ÷ 70
  2. = 4 h = 4 hours
6.A car travels 140 km at an average speed of 70 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 2 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 140 ÷ 70
  2. = 2 h = 2 hours
7.A car travels 160 km at an average speed of 80 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 2 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 160 ÷ 80
  2. = 2 h = 2 hours
8.Ruby travels 35 km in 1 hour. What is the average speed in km/h?

Answer: 35 km/h

  1. time = 1 h
  2. speed = distance ÷ time = 35 ÷ 1
  3. = 35 km/h
9.A car travels 460 km at an average speed of 115 km/h. How long does the trip take?

Answer: 4 hours

  1. time = distance ÷ speed = 460 ÷ 115
  2. = 4 h = 4 hours
10.A train travels at 110 km/h for 4 hours. How far does it travel?

Answer: 440 km
