If the car travels for 126 miles in 3 hours, you want to find out how much miles it can go for in 1 hour.

126/3 = ?/1

To find ? , you need to divide 126 by 3, which equals 42. So 42 miles PER HOUR.

Now, you want to find how many miles in 7 hours. So..

42/1 = ?/7 You need to do 42 x 7. That is 294.

YOUR ANSWER IS 294!!!!

Answer:

294 miles

Explanation:

using the relationship between distance / speed / time

distance = speed × time

calculating speed =
(distance)/(time) =
(126)/(3) = 42 mph

Then travelling at this speed for 7 hours

distance = 42 × 7 = 294 miles
