Answer:

6 hour 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a space plane skims  the edge of space at 400 miles per hour.

Circumference of the planet=25000 miles approximately

We have to find the time taken by the plane to travel around the planet.

Speed of plane=4000 miles per hour

Total distance traveled by the plane= approximately 25000 miles

Because plane travel in circular path therefore, distance

traveled by plane=Circumference of planet

Time =\frac{distance}{speed}

Substitute the values then we get

Time =\frac{25000}{4000}=\frac{25}{4}=6\frac{1}{4} hours

Time=6 hour +\frac{1}{4}\times 60 minutes= 6\;hour\;20 minutes

1 hour=60 minutes

Hence, the plane takes time to travel around the planet=6 hour 20 minutes

<h3>Answer 1a :- </h3>

Here we can solve this question using<em> </em><em>Unitary</em><em> </em><em>Method</em><em> </em><em>.</em> As ;

→ In 17hrs the boat travels 452km

→ In 1hr the boat will travel 452km/17

→ In 9hrs the boat will travel 452/17km * 9 = 239.29km

\rule{200}4

<h3>Answer 1b:-</h3>

→ A car can travel 156km on 13L gasoline .

→ It will travel 1km on 13/156L of gasoline .

→ It will travel 480km on 13/156*480L = 40L of gasoline .

\rule{200}4

<h3>Answer 2a :-</h3>

→ A boat can go 180 miles on 60L gasoline.

→ It will go 1mile in 60/180L of gasoline.

→ It will go 306 miles in 60/180*306L = 102L of gasoline .

\rule{200}4

<h3>Answer 2b :-</h3>

→ On 51L of gasoline a car can go 408km

→ On 1L of gasoline car will go 408/51 km

→ On 11L of gasoline it will go 408/51*11L = 88km
