Answer:

  D.  61 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The travel time is 16:52 -8:13 = 8:39 hours, or 8.65 hours. Then the speed is ...

 speed = distance/time = 527.65 mi/(8.65 h) = 61 mi/h

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

It is often convenient to use "military" or "24-hour" time for calculations of time periods that extend over noon or midnight. For this purpose, 12 gets added to the hour number in the afternoon (pm). Of course, 39 minutes is 39/60 hours. That is found to be 0.65 hours by performing the division of 39 by 60.

larisa [96]
So this is basically a ratio and the form I use to solve these is
Is. = %
Of. 100
So we're looking for 5% of the 350,000 which will be x

X. = 5
350000. 100
Cross multiply
100x=1750000
Divide by 100

X=17500
