Answer:

120/2 = x/5....120 miles to 2 hrs = x miles to 5 hrs

cross multiply

(2)(x) = (120)(5)

2x = 600

x = 600/2

x = 300....the motorcyclist would travel 300 miles in 5 hrs

or u could do it this way..

120/2 = 60 miles per hr

60 * 5 = 300 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Robert works in a toll booth. About 18 to 23 cars pass through Robert's booth every 23 minutes. Which is a reasonable estimate f
BARSIC [14]

A reasonable number between 18 and 23 is 20. 69 minutes is 3 times 23 minutes, so we multiply the 20 by 3, getting an estimate of 60 cars.
