Question

Suppose a jet travels 60 km in 5 minutes. How many kilometers will it travel in 2 hours? In 6 hours? How many more kilometers will the jet travel in 6 hours that in 2 hours? If a trip takes 4 hours, how many kilometers does a jet travel?

Answer 1

Answer:

60 km / 5 min

720 km / 60 min      multiply both by 12

1440 km / 2 hr        multiply both by 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

this jet keeps a constant speed of 60 kilometers every 5 minutes throughout the entire 6 hours of it's flight, it will travel 4,320 kilometers.

Distance = Speed * Time

Speed = 60 km / 5 min

( 60 km/ 5 min ) * ( 60 min / 1 hour ) = 720 km / hour

Distance = ( 720 km / hour ) * ( 6 hours )

Distance = 4320 km
