The ratio of time taken by Binoy and Caro to cover a distance of 1000 km is 15:16.
Concept:
The speed of an object is inversely proportional to the time taken to cover a distance.
Formula Used:
Speed ∝ 1/Time
Calculation:
Let the time taken by Binoy be 15 units and the time taken by Caro be 16 units.
Since speed is inversely proportional to time:
⇒ Speed of Binoy : Speed of Caro = 1/15 : 1/16
⇒ Speed of Binoy : Speed of Caro = 16 : 15
∴ The ratio of their speeds is 16:15.
