Question

Malcom was headed to work on Monday. He traveled at 55 mph for the first 30 minutes until he was slowed down by rush hour. He traveled at 25 miles per hour for the rest of the 12 minute trip to work. How many miles does he travel to work?

Answer 1

56 miles.

Explanation:

Well first we realize it is MILES PER HOUR.

In-all he traveled 55 minutes which is .7 of an hour.

So we would multiply .7 by the solution of 25+55 which equals 80.

Then you get your answer, 56 miles.

I hope that helped :)
