Speed, Distance & Time

Speed, Distance, Time

Calculations

15 mins = 0• 25 hour

So: 3 hours 15 mins = 3• 25 hours

30 mins = 0• 5 hour

So: 7 hours 30 mins = 7• 5 hours

45 mins = 0• 75 hour

So: 2 hours 45 mins = 2• 75 hours Reminder: How to change minutes into a decimal

D S T A windsurfer travelled 28 km in 1 hour 45 mins. Calculate his speed. Speed = Distance Time 28 1 • 75

= 16 km/h 1 hour 45 mins Answer: His speed was 16 km / hour

2 hour 30 mins Answer: He travelled 125 km A salesman travelled at an average speed of 50 km/h for 2 hours 30 mins. How far did he travel? D S T Distance = Speed x Time = 50 x 2• 5 = 125 km
