Lily drives 90 miles in 2 hours. If she drives at the same rate, how far does lily travel in each of the following time intervals: 1 hour, 1/2 hour, and 3 hours? Please solve in at least two different ways. You could make a bar model, double number line, ratio table, or graph.

How far does she travel in 1/2 hour?

Answer 1

22.5 miles 1/2 hour - 45 miles 1 hour - 67.5 miles 1.5 hours - 135 miles 3 hours

Explanation:

If Lily travels 90mph in 2 hours she would travel 45mph each hour. So now just take 45 times 1, 1.5, and 3 to get your answers. So in half an hour she would travel 22.5 miles
