Answer:
40 minutes= <u>6</u> miles
20 minutes= <u>5</u> miles
1 hour and 20 minutes = <u>12</u> miles
2 hours and 20 minutes = <u>21</u> miles
10 minutes= <u>1.5</u> miles
<u>1 hour 40 minutes</u> = 15 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
1 hour = 9 miles
2 hours = 18 miles
<u>Solve for 40 min</u>
If 1 hour = 9 miles,
∴ 40 = ? miles
To find,
first, convert 1 hour to minutes
Which is 60 minutes,
Second, set an equation:
60/9 = 40/?
Next, divide 60/9:
6.66666666667 in nearest tenths would be 6.7
Lastly, divide 40 and 6.7
which is 5.97 in nearest tenths is 6
Therefore, the 40 minutes= <u>6</u> miles
<u>Solve for 20 minutes</u>
If 1 hour = 9 miles,
∴ 20 =? miles
To find,
first, convert 1 hour to minutes
Which is 60 minutes,
Second, set an equation:
60/9 = 20/?
Next, divide 60/9:
6.66666666667 in nearest tenths would be 6.7
Lastly, divide 20 and 6.7
which is 2.98 in nearest tenths is 3
Therefore, 20 minutes=<u>3</u> miles
<u>Solve for 1 hour and 20 minutes</u>
If 1 hour = 9 miles,
and 20 minutes is 3 miles,
then you have found your answer. Simply add them both.
9 + 3 = 12
Therefore, 1 hour and 20 minutes = <u>12</u> miles
<u>Solve for 2 hours and 20 minutes</u>
If 2 hours = 18 miles,
and 20 minutes is 3 miles,
then you have found your answer. Simply add them both.
18 + 3 = 21
Therefore, 2 hours and 20 minutes = <u>21</u> miles
<u>Solve for 10 minutes</u>
If 1 hour = 9 miles,
∴ 10 =? miles
To find,
first, convert 1 hour to minutes
Which is 60 minutes,
Second, set an equation:
60/9 = 10/?
Next, divide 60/9:
6.66666666667 in nearest tenths would be 6.7
Lastly, divide 10 and 6.7
which is 1.49 in nearest tenths is 1.5
Therefore, 20 minutes = <u>1.5</u> miles
<u>Solve for 15 miles</u>
If 9 miles = 1 hour,
∴ 15 miles =?
Second, set an equation:
9/60 = 15/?
Next, divide 60/9:
6.66666666667 in nearest tenths would be 6.7
Lastly, <em>multiply</em> 15 and 6.7
which is 100.5 in nearest tenths is 100
Therefore, 15 miles = <u>1 hour 40 minutes</u>
