Question

A truck driver took between 5.5 and 6 hours to make a 350-mile trip. The average speed, in miles per hour, must have been between what two numbers?

Answer 1

63.6 MHP and 58.3 MPH

Explanation:

total number of miles divided by the time

Answer 2

Answer: The average speed would be between 58.33 mph and 63.63 mph.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of hours = 5.5

Distance of trip = 350 miles

So, Average speed would be

`(350)/(5.5)=63.63\ mph`

Number of hours = 6

Distance of trip = 350 miles

So, Average speed would be

`(350)/(6)=58.33\ mph`

So, the average speed would be between 58.33 mph and 63.63 mph.
