| Two motorcyclists drove out of the village simultaneously in opposite directions. After 2 hours, the distance between them became 166 km. The speed of the first motorcyclist is 45 km / h. Find the speed of the second motorcyclist.
1. Find the distance that the motorcyclist traveled in two hours, if it is known that his speed is 45 km / h.
2 * 45 = 90 kilometers.
2. Let’s calculate the distance that the 2nd motorcyclist traveled during the same time, if it is known that the 1st out of 166 kilometers traveled 90 kilometers.
166 – 90 = 76 kilometers.
3. Find out how fast he was driving.
76/2 = 38 kilometers.
Answer: The speed of the 2nd motorcyclist was 38 kilometers per hour.
