Answer:

about 3 1/2 hours long

Step-by-step explanation:

70 goes into 240 evenly 3 times, and 70×3 equals 210. that leaves 30 miles remaining. since he is moving at an average rate of 70mph, 3/7 would be the remaining time. to decimal that equals a total of about 3 hours and 25 minutes, which, rounded up, equals 3 and 1 half hours.
