Question

A pilot took 1/2 hour to complete 1/3 of his trip. How much longer will it take him to complete his trip?

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is 1.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that the pilot took 1/2 hour to complete 1/3rd of his trip. We are to calculate the time that he will take to complete his trip.

Time taken by the pilot to complete 1/3 rd of his trip = 1/2

Therefore, time taken by the pilot to complete his trip is given by

$t=\dfrac{1}{2}\times 3=1.5.$

Thus, the pilot will take 1.5 hours to complete his trip.
