Answer 1

Answer:

7:24 pm

Time taken will be longer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Distance between Manchester and London = 195 miles

Departure time = 3.30 pm

Average speed of Coach = 50 mph

Arrival time in London :

Time taken = distance / speed

Time taken = 195 / 50 = 3.9 hours (3 hours (0.9 * 60) = 3 hours 54 minutes

= 3:30 pm + 3 hours 54 minutes = 7:24 pm

If the speed is Lower then the Timetaken will be longer and subsequently coach will arrive after 7:24 pm
