Answer:

The average speed of Marshall is 29.7 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

distance traveled to work, d₁ = 27 miles

distance traveled back home, d₂ = 27 miles

initial time taken, t₁ = 1 hour and 20 minutes

final time taken, t₂ = 29 minutes

Total distance traveled, d = d₁ + d₂ = 27 miles + 27 miles = 54 miles

Total time taken for the journey, t = t₁ + t₂ = 1 hour + ( 20 mins + 29 mins)

t = 1 hour + 49 mins = 1 hour + 0.817 hour = 1.817 hour

The average speed is given by;

v = total distance / total time

v = 54 miles / 1.817 hour

v = 29.7 mph

Therefore, the average speed of Marshall is 29.7 mph

51 is 33 1/3 of what number?
Makovka662 [10]

1700, just use the inverse operation. The problem would look like this ( not inverse operation ) x ÷ 33 1/3 = 51

All you have to do is multiply the two numbers.

51 x 33 1/3 = 1700

Now plug it back in and check

1700 ÷ 33 1/3 does indeed equal 51.
