Stardust the unicorn, covered a distance of 50 miles on his first trip to the forest. On a later trip he travelled 300 miles while going three times as fast. What is his new time compared with the old time?

Answer:

the new time is twice the old time.

Explanation:

on the first trip suppose the speed is 1 and the distance is 50 miles

time= distance/ speed= 50/1=50 minutes

on the second trip the speed is 3 times the first time and distance is 300 miles

time = distance/ speed= 300/3= 100 minutes
