Answer 1

Answer:

255 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{\sf Distance= Speed \times Time}$

Journey before lunch:

• Speed = 55 mph
• Time = 3 hrs

$\implies \sf Distance = 55 \times 3=165\: miles$

Journey after lunch:

• Speed = 45 mph
• Time = 2 hrs

$\implies \sf Distance = 45 \times 2=90\: miles$

Total miles driven

= distance traveled before lunch + distance traveled after lunch

= 165 miles + 90 miles

= 255 miles

Therefore, the Ramos family drove 255 miles in total.

Answer 2

Answer:

ok so first they drove 55 for 3 hours so

55*3=165

and then they drove 45 for 2 hours

45*2=90

165+90=255

so in total they drove 255 miles
