Question

A satellite flies 55584 miles in
7.72 hours. How many miles has it flown in 23.19 hours?

Answer 1

Miles flown in 23.19 hours = 166968 miles

Explanation:

Given that:

A satellite flies 55584 miles in 7.72 hours

We will find the unit rate first,

Unit rate =
`(55584)/(7.72)`

Unit rate = 7200 miles per hour

Miles flown in 23.19 hours,

Miles flown = 7200 * 23.19

Miles flown = 166968 miles

Hence,

Miles flown in 23.19 hours = 166968 miles
