Question

A boat traveled 27 miles in 2 hours. At this, how many miles will the boat travel in 1/2 hour?

Answer 1

You do distance over time to get the rate, so you'd do 27/2= 13.5mph then divide that in half since you're asking for the distance traveled in half that hour so you do 13.5/2 and you get 6.75 miles traveled in half and hour.
