The car was traveling at a speed of 120 km / h and the bus was 3 times less. At what speed the bus was traveling.

In order to find the speed of the bus, we need to take the speed of the car and divide it by 3. We do this because in the condition of this problem we are told that the speed of the bus was 3 times less than the speed of the car. It is also important to take into account what in this case we are dividing, but if in the condition of the problem we were told that the speed of the bus was 3 km / h less than the speed of the car, then instead of dividing we would subtract:

120: 3 = 40 km / h bus speed.

Answer: the bus speed is 40 km / h.
