Well, how long will it take you to drive 135 miles at 55mph?
at 55 mph, you're doing 55 miles every hour, so we can simply get the quotient of 135/55 and that's how many hours it'll take you to drive 135 miles at that speed.
so, it takes you that long, however, from 3:15 to 5:00pm there are only 45mins + 60mins or 1hr and 45 minutes, namely 1¾ hr.
so 2hrs and 27 minutes is much later than 1¾ hr, so, no dice, you can't arrive at 5pm, actually you'll arrive around 5:42pm.
