A bus travels 320km south along a straight path with an average velocity of 90km/h to the south. The bus stops for 27 minutes, then it travels 230km south with an average velocity of 69km/h to the south. How long does the total trip last? answer in units fo h.

Explanation / Answer

(90 km/h) / (320 km) = 0.28125 h (27 min) / (60 min/h) = 0.45 h (69km/h) / (230km) = 0.3 h (0.28125hh) + (0.45 h) + (0.3 h) = 1.03125 h The trip lasted 1.03125 hours.
