Question

Gina’s house is 4 miles from the dog show. She walks her dog at a speed of 2.5 miles per hour. If they leave for the show at 6:30 a.m., what time will they arrive?

Answer 1

Find how many hours she will be walking by dividing 4 by 2.5 to get 1.6 hours. Multiply .6 by 60 to see about how many minutes of the hour there will be and get 36. Now add 1 hour and 36 minutes to 6:30 and get 8:06 am
