Question

Cody hiked at an average speed of 1 mile per hour for 5 hours on Saturday. He hiked an average speed of 2 miles per hour for 3 hours on Sunday. Which explanation correctly tells how to calculate the total number of miles that Cody hiked in two days? Step 1: Divide 1 ÷ 5. Step 2: Divide 2 ÷ 3. Step 3: Subtract the two quotients. Step 1: Multiply 1 × 5. Step 2: Multiply 2 × 3. Step 3: Add the two products. Step 1: Divide 1 ÷ 5. Step 2: Divide 2 ÷ 3. Step 3: Add the two quotients. Step 1: Multiply 1 × 5. Step 2: Multiply 2 × 3. Step 3: Subtract the two products.

Answer 1

Step 1: Multiply 1x5 Step 2: Multiply 2x3 Step 3: Add the two products

d=v*t

d=distance

v=velocity(speed)

t=time

distance is equal to the product of velocity and time, equation form;

d=vt
