C.
117,000 hr
D.
14.44 hr
The ship traveled 1300 kilometers in total. But, at rate of 90 kilometers per hour. So what is the rate of the ship for 1300 kilometers.
This is very easy my friend .... all you have to do is this
90 K >>>> 1 hour 1300 k >>>> x ( x represent the hour we are looking for) Cross multiply 90x = 1300 Divide both sides by 90 90x/90 = 1300/90 x = 14.44 hr
Answer : It take the ship 14.44 hr to travel 1300 kilo The correct option is D
