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 <u>2 hours</u>, 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.
