To calculate the distance covered by a car moving at a speed of 60 km/h for 2 hours and 30 minutes, we need to convert the time into hours and then multiply it by the speed.
Given: Speed = 60 km/h Time = 2 hours and 30 minutes
To convert 30 minutes into hours, we divide it by 60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour:
30 minutes / 60 = 0.5 hours
Now we can add the converted time to the original 2 hours:
2 hours + 0.5 hours = 2.5 hours
Now, to calculate the distance covered, we multiply the speed by the time:
Distance = Speed × Time Distance = 60 km/h × 2.5 hours
Calculating the distance:
Distance = 150 kilometers
Therefore, a car moving at a speed of 60 km/h for 2 hours and 30 minutes will cover a distance of 150 kilometers.
