The distance between City K and City L was 820 km apart. A car travelled at an average speed of 94 km/h from City K to City L. At the same time, a bus travelled at an average speed of 70 km/h from City L to City K. How much further did the car travel than the bus when the car met the bus on the way?
Combined speed of the car and the bus
= 94 + 70
= 164 km/h
Time taken for the car and the bus to meet
= 820 ÷ 164
= 5 h
Difference in the speed between the car and the bus
= 94 - 70
= 24 km/h
Distance that the car travelled further than the bus
= 5 x 24
= 120 km
Answer(s): 120 km
