eddy and freddy start simultaneously from city a and they travel to city b and city c respectively . eddy takes 3 hours and freddy takes 4 hours to complete the journey . if the distance between city a and city b is 570 kms and city a and city c is 300 kms . what is the ratio of their average speed of travel ? ( eddy : freddy )
"distance traveled by eddy = 570 km time taken by eddy = 3 hours average speed of eddy = 570 / 3 = 190 km / hour distance traveled by freddy = 300 km time taken by freddy = 4 hours average speed of freddy = 300 / 4 = 75 km / hour ratio of average speed of eddy to freddy = 190 / 75 = 38 / 15 answer c"
divide(divide(570, 3), divide(300, 4))
