Question

If a car goes 280 miles in 4 hrs how far could it go in 6 hrs and 30 mins

Answer 1

Answer:

280/4 = 70 miles per hour. Next, take the unit rate and multiply it by the number of hours you are trying to find. In this case, you are trying to find 6 hours and 30 minutes, but this can also be rewritten as 6.5, since 30 minutes is half an hour. So, in 6.5 hours, the car can go 455 miles
