Practice

Same pattern as Mr Lee's drive — Town A to Town B. New numbers, new story. Try each one on paper, then check the working below — or watch it drawn out, the same way the problem above is.

Question 1

Siti cycles from her house to the beach, a distance of 45 km, at a steady speed of 15 km/h. If she sets off at 7:15 am, at what time will she reach the beach?

Work it out on paper, then check below. ▶ See the working

Question 2

An express train travels from Central Station to Hillview Station, a distance of 360 km, at a constant speed of 90 km/h. If the train departs at 6:45 am, at what time will it arrive?

Work it out on paper, then check below. ▶ See the working

Question 3

A ferry sails from Jetty Town to Coral Island, a distance of 84 km, at a speed of 24 km/h. If it leaves at 8:50 am, at what time will it reach Coral Island?
