Question

Salma drove 605 miles in 11 hours at the same rate how long would it take her to drive 385

Answer 1

Distance = 605 miles
Time = 11 hours
Velocity = distance/time
Velocity = 605miles/11 hours
Velocity = 55mph

385miles/55miles/hour= 7hours.

Or

605 = 11
385 = x

Solving for x =(385/605)*11
X= 7 hours

Answer 2

divide 605 by 11 to find her speed

605/11 = 55 ( she drove 55 miles per hour )

now divide 385 by 55 to find time

385/55 = 7 hours
