Question

The speed limit sign on the freeway said 110 kilometers per hour, but the speedometer on Cesar's car is calibrated in miles per hour. How fast should Cesar drive his car to avoid a speeding ticket if 1 kilometer is about 0.62 miles?

Answer 1

Answer:

68.2 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed limit = 110 kilometers per hour

1 kilometer = 0.62 miles

110 kilometers = x miles

Cross product

1*x = 0.62*110

x = 68.2 miles

Cesar should drive at 68.2 miles per hour to avoid a speeding ticket

110 kilometers per hour = 68.2 miles per hour
