Question
A cyclist leaves home at 08:35
He travels 49 kilometres at an average speed of 14 kilometres per hour.
Work out the time that he finishes his journey.
Solution
To solve this problem, we first need to find out how long the journey takes.
-
We know that the distance is 49 kilometres and the speed is 14 kilometres per hour.
-
We calculate the time by dividing the distance by the speed. So, 49 km / 14 km/h = 3.5 hours.
-
Now, we know that the cyclist leaves at 08:35 and the journey takes 3.5 hours.
-
To find out when he finishes his journey, we add the duration of the journey to the time he left.
-
08:35 + 3.5 hours = 12:05.
So, the cyclist finishes his journey at 12:05.
