Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away. After 4 hours, Liza is 2/3 of the way there. How many more hours does Liza have to drive?
<em><u>Answer:</u></em>
Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that Liza is driving to her sister's house 360 miles away

Now distance = 120 miles and speed = 60 miles per hour
Thus Liza need to drive 2 more hours to reach her sister house
