Detailed Solution

Given, a loaded truck travels 14 km in 25 minutes.

We know that 1 hour = 60 minutes.

Then 5 hours =5×60=300 minutes.

Let the truck travels x km in 300 minutes.

Distance travelled ( in km )14x
Time taken ( in minutes )25300

Here, distance and time are in direct proportion.

So, 1425=x300.

x=14×30025=168.

Thus, it can travel 168 km in 5 hours.
