90 minutes = 1,5 hours
Distance = speed * time = 50 * 1.5 = 75 miles (answer).

Answer:

Total distance covered by the car is 75 miles.

Explanation:

Given information:

Average speed of car = 50 miles per hour

Time = 90 minutes

We know that, 1 hour = 60 minutes

Using this conversion, convert the time in hours.


Time=(90)/(60)=1.5\text{ hours}

The formula for distance is


Distance=Speed* Time


Distance=50* 1.5


Distance=75

Therefore total distance covered by the car is 75 miles.
