I have no clue what to do here:

Shanice's car is traveling 10 miles per hour slower than twice the speed of Brandon's car. She covers 93 miles in 1 hour 30 minutes. How fast is Brandon driving?

hanice's rate: 93 / 1.5 = 62 miles per hour

she is 10 miles slower than twice the speed of Brandon

62 +10 = 72

72/2 = 36

Brandon is driving 36 miles per hour
