A bus left Pune at the time on the first clock and drove at the steady speed on the speedometer until it reached Nashik at the time on the second clock. Using d = s × t, how far did it travel?

Question

Accepted Answer

210 km. From 9:00 to 12:30 is 3 12 hours, so t = 3.5 and s = 60. d = 60 × 3.5 = 210 km. Using 3 hours gives 180 km; adding 60 + 3.5 is not the formula.
