Question

the chumas family is driving from north carolina to california on vacation. They drive 330 in 5.5 hours How many hours would it take them to drive 720.

Answer 1

What you need to do is:

Step 1) Divide 330 by 5.5.
Step 2) Then, use that quotient as your divisor to divide 720 with that quotient.
Step 3) That's your answer! Remember to put a label!

Answer 2

An easy way is to work out their speed. Speed = distance/time.

First part: Speed = 330/5.5 = 60 mph

Finally, the second part: time = distance / speed

So time = 720/60 = 12 hours
