Question

After 2 hours, Ernie had travelled 192 miles. If he travels at a constant speed, how far will he have travelled after 5 hours?

Answer 1

Answer: 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know that after two hours Ernie travelled 192 miles, we need to find the miles for one hour. We can find this by dividing the miles by the number of hours travelled so far. 192/2 = 96. We now know that Ernie travels 96 miles an hour. In order to calculate it for 5 hours, we need to times the 96 by 5. 96 * 5 = 480. Ernie travelled 480 miles in 5 hours.

Answer 2

Answer:

the answer is "480"

Step-by-step explanation:

so 192 divided by 2 hours is 96 so thats 96 miles per hour then I simply do 96 x 5 hours
