Question

A jet travels 470 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how far could the jet fly in 11 hours?

Answer 1

The jet will cover 2585 miles in 11 hours.

Explanation:

Given that:

Distance travelled by jet in 2 hours = 470 miles

Speed of jet =
`(Distance)/(Time)`

Speed of jet = 470/2

Speed of jet = 235 miles per hour

Time = 11 hours

Distance travelled in 11 hours = Speed * Time

Distance = 235 * 11

Distance = 2585 miles

Hence,

The jet will cover 2585 miles in 11 hours.
