Question

Your job is 7.5 miles from home. One option is to take the back roads to work. That route is calculated for driving at an average speed of 30 miles per hour. How long will it take you to get to work this way?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you are 7 and a half miles away, and you drive 30 miles per hour, you need to take 7.5 and divide it by it by 30 and you get 0.25, you then need to find what is a quarter (0.25) of 60 minutes, and you will find that it is 15 minutes.

So:

Answer:

The route will take 15 minutes to get to work taking the back roads.

Hope this helps!
