A bus and a car left the bus station at the same time and drove in the same direction along the highway.

A bus and a car left the bus station at the same time and drove in the same direction along the highway. The bus speed is 50 km / h, and the speed of the car is twice that. How many kilometers will the bus lag behind the car in 3 hours?

To solve the problem, you first need to determine the speed of the vehicle.
Since it is twice the speed of the bus, we get:
50 * 2 = 100 km / h.
We find the speed ahead of the car over the speed of the bus.
To do this, subtract the speed of the bus from the speed of the car.
We get:
100 – 50 = 50 km / h (This is how much the car moves faster).
We find the distance that will be between the bus and the car in 3 hours.
We multiply the lead speed by the travel time.
50 * 3 = 150 km.
