Question

Allen traveled for 7 hours at a constant rate of 40 miles per hour. Anna traveled the same distance at a constant rate of 50 miles per hour.
How long did it take Anna to travel the same distance as Allen?

Drag the steps in the correct order to solve the problem.

Answer 1

Here is the correct order of the step:

Identify: Anna's time is the unknown

Strategize : let x = Anna's time

Set up : 7(40) = x(50)

Solve: x = 5.6

Check: 7(40) = 5.6(50)

What is Anna's time?

The first step is to determine the distance Allen travelled:

Distance = average speed x time

40 x 7 = 280 miles  

The second step is to determine the time it took Anna to travel 280 miles.

Time = distance / average speed

280 / 50 = 5.6 hours
