Given :

Sally travels by car from one city to another. She drives for 30 min at 80 km/hr, 12.0 min at 105 km/hr, and 45 min at 40.0 km/hr.

To Find :

The total distance traveled.

Solution :

Total distance traveled is given as sum :

Distance = sum of  product of speed and time

D = (v₁ × t₁) + (v₂ × t₂) + (v₃ × t₃)

Putting all given value in this we get :

[tex]D = 80\times \dfrac{30}{60} + 105 \times \dfrac{12}{60} + 40\times \dfrac{45}{60}\\\\D = 91\ km[/tex]

Hence, this is the required solution.
