That depends on how you're representing the speedup. To travel 10 miles, at 60 MPH, takes 10 minutes. Make it 100% faster, at 120 MPH, and that time becomes 5 minutes. Travel just as far in 50% of the time. Or travel just as far 100% faster. The 90% speedup matches the reduction of the time it takes to nearly half (a 90% (projected) speedup, or about a 45% time reduction, as mathed out by kazinator `Projected speedup from both: 4.631/2.431 = 1.905`). Your claim that its closer to 50% is correct from a total time taken perspective, just coming at it from the other direction. |
