Question

6) A jet travels 590 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how far could the jet fly in 12 hours? What is the rate of speed of the jet?​

Answer 1

295mph which means that it could go 3540 miles in 12 hours

Answer 2

You can do 590 miles/2 hours to get a “unit rate” per hour.

590/2=295 miles/hour

You can multiply 295 miles/hour by 12 to get the distance in 12 hours

295miles/hour x 12 hours= 3450 miles
