Question

A Ferrari drove 300 kilometers in one and a half hours. How fast was the car going?

Answer 1

I'm assuming you mean how many mph when you refer to how fast the car was going.

So 300 km = 1.5 hrs

1.) Find the number of km per hour
Since we have the equation 300km = 1.5hr, we can just divide 1.5 (to isolate the number of hours) on both sides.

You should get 200 km = 1 hour

2.) Convert km to miles
To do this, you must know the conversion 1 km = 0.621371192 miles

So to convert 200 km to miles, just multiply 200 x 0.621371192.

You should get 124.274238.

That means the Ferrari drove at a pace of roughly 124 mph :)

Answer 2

It drove 124 mph because 300/1.5 converted to mph is 124 hope this helps
