The car drove 9 km in 10 minutes. What path will he travel in 0.5 hours, moving at the same speed?

1) Find the speed of the car if it drove 9 km in 10 minutes.

Let’s translate 10 minutes into hours:

10 minutes = 10 * 1/60 hours = 10/60 hours = 1/6 hours.

In order to find the speed, you need to divide the distance by its time.

v = s / t = 9 km / (1/6 h) = 9 / (1/6) km / h = 9/1 * 6/1 km / h = 9 * 6 km / h = 54 km / h;

2) Determine the path of the car if it travels at a speed of 54 km / h in 0.5 h.

From the formula v = s / t we get the formula s = v * t.

s = v * t = 54 km / h * 0.5 h = 54 * 0.5 km = 54 * 5/10 km = 54 * 1/2 km = 54/2 km = 50/2 km + 4/2 km = 25 km + 2 km = 27 km.

Answer: 27 km.
