Answer:
60 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
If it takes 15 hours to travel 900 miles then it gives you the fraction 15/900 where the numerator(top number) is 15 and denominator(bottom number) is 900.
Then to simplify it: since 15 is a common factor of itself(15) and 900, 15/15 = 1(1 hour) and 900/15 = 60(60 miles).
When it comes to hundreds and thousands and even millions, you can tell how much bigger something is by how many more zeros are at the end. Each new zero added, is another rank up. The system goes:
1=10x bigger
2=100x bigger
3=1000x bigger
4=10000x bigger
5=100000 bigger
so on and so forth. There are 2 zeros in 700, and only 1 zero in 70, the difference in zeros is 1, so you can refer to the chart and conclude that 700 is 10 times bigger than 70. You could also divide 700 by 70 to get 10. This is more accurate, but the chart is simpler.
The answe is 1.7x10 exponent 5
