Question

An airplane on autopilot took 7 hours to travel 4,914 kilometers. What is the unit rate for kilometers per​ hour?

Answer 1

Distance traveled by an airplane in 7 hours = 4,914 kilometers

We have to determine the unit rate for kilometers per​ hour.

So, distance traveled by an airplane in 1 hour = $4,914 \div 7$

= 702 kilometers.

So, an airplane will travel 702 kilometers in an hour.

Therefore, the unit rate for kilometers per​ hour is 702 km per hour.
