Two cars cover the same distance at the speed of 60 and 64 kmps respectively. Find the distance traveled by them if the slower car takes 1 hour more than the faster car.

  • A.906 km
  • B.960 m
  • C.960 km
  • D.966 km

Answer: C

The slower car takes one hour longer over the same distance.

\[ \frac{d}{60} - \frac{d}{64} = 1 \]

\[ d\left(\frac{64 - 60}{3840}\right) = 1 \quad\Longrightarrow\quad \frac{4d}{3840} = 1 \]

\[ d = 960 \text{ km} \]

The unit matters: the answer is in kilometres, since the speeds were given in kmph.
