Question

Angie's grandma live in Cleveland, Ohio,and is going to drive to Minneapolis, Minnesota, to visit Angie and her family. The two cities are 752 travel miles apart,and it take 12 hours to drive that far . Angie' s grandma want to do the drive in two day. If she drive the same amount each day, how many mail will she drive each day?

Answer 1

Answer:

376 miles each day

Step-by-step explanation:

If Angie's grandma wants to drive the same distance each day, she can divide her journey in to two equal halves.

The total distance that Angie's grandma has to drive is 752 miles so each day she may need to drive,

$\frac{752}{2}=376$ miles

Also, it takes 12 hours to drive 752 miles, so the speed at which Angie's grandma should drive is,

$\frac{752}{12}=62.667 m/h$

At this speed if she drives 6 hours a day, she may need to drive,

$d= s \times t= 62.667 \times 6 = 376$ miles in a day.
