To determine the time it will take for the car to complete the trip, we can use the formula:

Time = Distance / Speed

Given that the distance is 260 km and the speed is 80 km/h, we can substitute these values into the formula:

Time = 260 km / 80 km/h

To simplify the calculation, we convert the units to a common unit of measurement. Let's convert the speed from kilometers per hour (km/h) to kilometers per minute (km/min) since time is usually expressed in minutes:

Speed = 80 km/h * (1 h / 60 min) = 4/3 km/min

Now, we can calculate the time:

Time = 260 km / (4/3 km/min) = 260 km * (3/4 km/min) = 195 minutes.

Therefore, it will take the car approximately 195 minutes to complete the trip.
