Answer:
10 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken
Ardi:
Total distance travelled = 70 km
Total time taken = 35 minutes = 35/60 hour
Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken
= 70 km ÷ 35/60 hr
= 70 × 60/35
= 4,200/35
= 120 km/hr
Lei:
Total distance travelled = 585 km Total time taken = 9:05 - 13:35 = 4 hours 30 minutes
= 4.5 hours
Average speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken
= 585 km / 4.5 hours
= 130 km/hr
Difference, in km/h, between the average speed of their trains = Lei's train - Ardi's train
= 130 km/hr - 120 km/hr
= 10 km/hr
