Question

A car travels at an average speed of 64 miles per hour. How many miles does it travel in 5 hours and 15 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:    It travels 336 miles in 5 hours and 15 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:   It travels 336 miles in 5 hours and 15 minutes because 64 x 5 1/4 = 336

15 is 1/4 of 60

Answer 2

Answer:

336 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you find an equation for this problem, which is y=64x. Next, you convert 5 hours and 15 minutes to 5.25 because of five full hours and the 15 minutes, which is 1/4 or .25 of 1 hour. Then, you substitute time into the equation y=64(5.25) and got y=336 miles that you have traveled.
