Question

Terry’s average driving speed for a 2 and a half hour trip was 58 mph. How far did Terry travel?

Answer 1

Is it is multiplication it is 116 in division 29

Answer 2

145 miles. lets see how i got this.

so first i took the 2.5 hour trip and the average speed, which was 58 mph (or 93.3 kph), and multiplied them together, because of the rule of d=rt.

sidenote: also if you want to find the speed, use r=d/t. also, for finding the time, use the t=d/r rule.

side-sidenote: i hope this answers your question and helps you in the future.

key: r= rate (mph or kph), d=distance, and t=time.
