The third day, they arrived at the beach after driving for 6 hours. How many miles did they drive on the third day?

Answer 1

390 Miles per 6 Hours.

Answer 2

390 miles.

Explanation:

Randall's family drove to the beach for vacation.

The first day, they drove 130 miles in 2 hours.

Speed =
`(Distance)/(Time)`

=
`(130)/(2)`

= 65 miles / hour

The second day, they drove 325 miles in 5 hours

=
`(325)/(5)` = 65 miles/hour

The third day, they arrived at the beach after driving for 6 hours.

Distance = Speed × Time

= 65 × 6

= 390 miles.

They drove 390 miles on the third day.
