6.5 hours is equal to:
60 mins x 6 + 30 mins = 390 mins
------------
42.25 / 390 = 13/120
------------
Now there are 60 minutes in an hour, so what we do is multiply 13/120 by 60 to find out how much you earn per hour...
13/120 x 60 = 6.5
--------------
You earn $6.50 per hour.

Answer:
- 3 hours
- 1 hour 45 minutes
- 300 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
1. The trains are moving toward each other at a total speed of 50 +20 = 70 miles per hour. Together, they cover the 210 mile distance in ...
time = distance/speed
time = 210 mi/(70 mi/h) = 3 h
The trains collide after 3 hours.
__
2. The fly is closing with the freight train at a speed of 100 +20 = 120 miles per hour. Together, the fly and the train cover the initial 210 mile distance in ...
(210 mi)/(120 mi/h) = 7/4 h = 1 hour 45 minutes
The fly first meets the oncoming freight train after 1 h 45 min.
__
3. The fly is flying for all three hours before the trains collide, so, at 100 miles per hour, will fly 300 miles.
