- Machana starts walking towards the next village 24 km away at noon. He walks for half an hour at an average speed of 8 km/hr before his friend catches up with him and offers him a lift on his bicycle which moves at an average speed of 25km/hr. It takes him 2.5 minutes to board the stationary bicycle.
- Determine how far he walks before he is given the lift (2 marks)
- distance covered in ½ hr
=8 × ½ = 4 km
- distance covered in ½ hr
- At what time did his friend start if the two are neighbors (3 marks)
- How much longer would he take to complete the journey if he head not been given the lift (5 marks)
- Time he would take to cover 24km = 24/8 = 3 hrs
