Question

Vivian and her family went to the beach for a vacation. They drove 294 miles in 7 hours to get there. How many miles did they drive each hour?

Answer 1

42 miles each hour

Explanation:

The relationship between speed, distance, and time is ...

speed = distance/time

To find the speed at which the family drove, divide the distance by the time:

speed = (294 mi)/(7 h)

speed = 42 mi/h

They drove an average of 42 miles each hour.
