Question

a plane can fly 3952 kilometers in 3 hours. if the plane flies in cloudy skies, it can fly 184 less kilometers than usual within the same time. what is the speed for the plane flies in cloudy skies? ____ km/h

Explanation:

Step1: Find the distance in cloudy skies

The usual distance is 3952 km, and in cloudy skies, it's 184 km less. So we calculate \( 3952 - 184 \).
\( 3952 - 184 = 3768 \) (km)

Step2: Calculate the speed in cloudy skies

Speed is distance divided by time. The time is 3 hours, and the distance in cloudy skies is 3768 km. So we use the formula \( \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \), substituting the values: \( \frac{3768}{3} \).
\( \frac{3768}{3} = 1256 \) (km/h)

Answer:

1256
