Given that a vehicle travels 25 miles in 2 hours, determine the average speed of the vehicle in miles per hour.
Work:
In order to find the average mph of the vehicle, you have to divide the distance the vehicle travels in a certain period of time by that amount of time.
So, in this case, the vehicle traveled 25 miles in 2 hours, so you would divide 25 by 2.
25/2 = 12.5
That means, the vehicle is traveling at a speed of 12.5 mph.
Thus, the average speed of the vehicle is 12.5 miles per hour (mph).
