Question

Curtis decided to go on a road trip to Canada on the first day of his trip he drove for 15hours and traveled 870 miles at what rate did he travel on the first day miles per hour

Answer 1

Since Curtis drove for 15 hours and traveled 870 miles, if you are trying to find the miles per hour (mph) you must divide the number of miles by the number of hours, so 870/15. Once you do that, you can calculate that Curtis traveled 58 mph.

Answer 2

15 hours = 870 miles

1 hour = 870 ÷ 15 = 58 miles

-

Answer: He traveled at 58 miles/hour
