Question

Evan and two friends are driving to a campground 165 mi. from home. Assuming they drive at a constant speed, what rate of speed will get them there in 3 hr.?

A. 40 mph
B. 45 mph
C. 50 mph
D. 55 mph

Answer 1

D

Explanation: 165/3 is equal to 55

Answer 2

D

Explanation:

If you divide 165 by 3 you get 55. So, If you need to get home in 3 hours you would have to divide the miles to get you home by the time to get there. So then you divide 165 miles/ 3 hours = 55 mph. Hope this helps, let me know if correct, and have a great day!!
