Question

Leon drove 100 miles in 2 hours. How far can Leon drive in 2 hours and 40 minutes?

  1. find the total minutes

2h = 120 minutes

120 + 40 = 160

2. solve with the equation

100 : 120 = x = 160

x = 100 * 160 : 120

x = 133.33 (repeating)

Leon drives 100 miles in 2 hours.

100/2 = 50/1

Leon drives 50 miles in 1 hour.

40 minutes = 40/60 = 2/3

50 x 2/3 = ~33.33

Leon can drive ~133 miles and a little more.
