In this question, it is given that
If a bus with an average speed of 40 miles per hour travels for 30 minutes.
Here time is 30 minutes. And 1 hour have 60 minutes. SO the given times is 0.5 hour .
And the speed is 40 miles per hour .
We have to find the distance. And distance is the product of speed and time. That is
[tex]Distance = 40 *0.5 = 20 \ miles[/tex]
Distance travelled by the bus is 20 miles
let us start off by writing down the parameters given in the question
speed= 40 miles per hour
time= 30 minutes
convert 30 minutes to hour
30/60
= 0.5 hour
distance= speed ˣ time
= 40 ˣ 0.5
= 20
Hence the distance travelled by the bus is 20 miles
