Average, Time and Work, Time and Distance

Sum of observations
1. Average = .
Number of observations
2. Sum of observations = (Average) (Number of observations).
3. The speed of a moving object is the distance travelled
by it in a unit time.
Distance in km
4. (i) Speed in km/hr = .
Time in hours
Distance in metres
(ii) Speed in m/sec = .
Time in seconds
5. (i) Distance = Time Speed.
Distance
(ii) Time = .
Speed
6. (i) To convert a speed of km/hr into m/sec, multiply
5
by .
18
(ii) To convert a speed of m/sec into km/hr, multiply
18
by .
5
7. (i) In crossing a stationary object (like pole or a
standing man, etc.) a train has to cover a
distance equal to the length of the train.

Class-VII Key Point

 Total distance covered
8. Average speed =
Total time taken
9. If a worker can finish a work in x days, then the
1
workers one days work = .
x
1
10. If a workers one days work = , then the worker can
x
finish the work in x days.
11. If a certain number of workers under take to do a
certain job together in a certain number of days for a
certain amount, then this amount is distributed among
them in the ratio of their one days work.
