Question

Marcus drove his Honda Prelude for 4 hours at a rate of 55 miles per hour. How far did he travel?

Answer 1

To solve this, you’d multiply 55 by 4, because he is travelling 55 miles every hour, for four hours, which means 55 miles every hour. The answer would be 220.

Answer 2

Answer : Distance covered is 220 miles.

Explanation :

It is given that,

Speed of Marcus's Honda Prelude, $v=55\ miles/hour$

Time duration, $t=4\ hours$

We know that the speed of an object is defined as the distance travelled per unit time.

$v=\dfrac{d}{t}$

or

$d=v\times t$

$d=55\ miles/hour\times 4\ hours$

$d=220\ miles$

Hence, this is the required solution.
