Question

A car is traveling a rate of 120 kilometers per hour. What is the cars rate in mile per hour? How many miles will the car travel in 2 hours? In your computation assume that 1 mike is equal to 1.6 kilometers

Answer 1

Answer:

120 km/ 1 hour

We need to convert kilometers into miles, so given the information below (1 mile = 1.6 km), we divide 120 km by 1.6 km because 1.6 km is equivalent to 1 mile.

120km/1.6km

= 75 miles, so therefore the cars rate will be:-

75 miles/ 1 hour

To see how many miles are in 2 hours, we must multiply the unit rate(75 miles/ 1 hour) by 2.

75 miles/ 1 hour x 2/2 hours

75 x 2

______ = 150/2, so the car will travel 150 miles in 2 hours.

 1 x 2

Answer 2

Step-by-step explanation:

120 ÷ 1.6 = 75.

so 75 miles per hour.

75 × 2 = 150

therefore 150 miles in 2 hours
