Question

A car travels at an average speed of 48 miles per hour. How long it take to travel 156 miles

Answer 1

Answer: 195 min or 3 hr and 15 min

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a proportion to solve this problem.

$\frac{48mi}{60 min} =\frac{156 mi}{x}$

$48x=156*60$

$48x=9360$

$x=195 min$

We can also write this in terms of hours and minutes.

$\frac{60 min}{1 hr} =\frac{195 min}{x}$

$60x=195$

$x=3.25$

3 hr and 15 min

Answer 2

Answer:

3.25 h = 3 h 15 m

Step-by-step explanation:

156 mi * 1h/48 mi = 3.25 h = 3 h 15 m
