Tara goes on a weekend road trip to see her best friend Natosha Tara lives in Memphis Tennessee and Natasha lives in Nashville w
hich are 212 miles apart if Tara drove 65 mph about how long will it take her to get to Nashville? Round your answer to the nearest hour If both Natasha and Tara drive halfway to meet at a rate of 60 mph what would be the exact amount of time it would take for them to reach each other?
It will take Tara 3 hours to get to Nashville. If they meet, it would take them 1 hour and 46 minutes or 1.766 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 212 miles by 65 mph: 212÷65=3.2 and 3.2 rounded is 3. They will each drive half the way if they meet in the middle, so 212 miles divided by 2 is 106. Divide that by 60: 106/60=1.766. That is equivalent to 1 hour and 46 minutes.
