The distance from his home to his work place is 118.125 miles

<h3>How to find the distance from his home to his work place?</h3>

He drove from home to work at an average speed of 45 mph. Therefore,

speed = 45 mph

let

time = x

speed = distance / time

distance = 45x

His return trip home took 45 minutes longer because he could only drive at 35 mph. Therefore,

45 minutes = 0.75 hours

distance = 35(x + 0.75)

distance = 35x + 26.25

Therefore,

45x = 35x + 26.25

45x - 35x = 26.25

10x = 26.25

x = 26.25 / 10

x = 2.625

Therefore,

distance = 45(2.625) = 118.125 miles
