Question

A woman drives her car 260 miles in 4 hours. At this rate how far will she travel in 6 hours?She will travel ? miles.

Answer 1

The speed formula is given by:

`v=(d)/(t)`

Where d is the distance traveled in t hours. From the problem, we know that:

`v=(260)/(4)=65\text{ mi/h}`

Using the speed formula, we can get the distance formula:

`d=v\cdot t`

Now, at this rate (v = 65 mi/h), the distance traveled in 6 hours is:

`d=65\cdot6=390\text{ mi}`

She will travel 390 miles in 6 hours.
