Answer:


\large\boxed{\textsf{Unknown Distance = 60 Miles.}}


\large\boxed{\textsf{Unknown Time = 7 Hours.}}

Explanation:


\textsf{We are asked to complete the ratio table.}


\large\underline{\textsf{What is a Ratio?}}


\textsf{A Ratio is a comparison between 2 or more values.}


\textsf{Ratios help us identify how much larger one number is to another.}


\textsf{How much larger is what we'll need to find out from our ratio table.}


\textsf{Note that the family is going a constant speed, so the ratio won't change its value.}


\large\underline{\textsf{Solving;}}


\textsf{Note that in the middle row we are given the amount of time, and the distance.}


\textsf{Let's use the middle row to identify how much larger the distance is to the time.}


\textsf{We should divide the distance by the amount of time.}


\large\underline{\textsf{Divide;}}


\tt (204)/(3.4) = \boxed{60}


\textsf{We know that the Distance is 60 times larger than the amount of time.}


\textsf{It's the vice versa for time where time is 60 times smaller than the distance.}


\large\underline{\textsf{Solving Continued;}}


\textsf{In the First Row, we are given that the time is 1 hour. The Distance is unknown.}


\textsf{Remember that time is 60 times less than the Distance, so we should multiply 1}


\textsf{by 60.}


\tt 60 * 1 = 60


\large\boxed{\textsf{Unknown Distance = 60 Miles.}}


\textsf{In the Third Row, we are given that the distance is 420 miles. The Time is unknown.}


\textsf{Remember that distance is 60 times larger than the time, so we should divide 420}


\textsf{by 60.}


(420)/(60) = 7


\large\boxed{\textsf{Unknown Time = 7 Hours.}}

\huge\text{Hey there!}


\huge\boxed{\mathtt{GUIDE\ \downarrow}}


\mathtt{1 \ hour \rightarrow 60 \ minutes \rightarrow 3,600 \ seconds}



\mathtt{First\ blank \ should \ be \ \bold{60} \ because:}


\mathtt{1 * 60 \ gives \ you\ \bf 60}


\mathtt{Whereas \ the \ second/third\ \ blank \should\ be \ \bold{7}\ because, \ (420)/(60)\ gives \ you \ \bf 7}



\huge\boxed{\mathtt{Therefore\ your \ answer(s)\ should \ be: }}


\huge\boxed{\boxed{\mathtt{FIRST \ BLANK: 60}}}\huge\checkmark


\huge\boxed{\boxed{\mathtt{SECOND/THIRD \ BLANK: 7}}}\huge\checkmark



\huge\text{Good luck on your assignment \& enjoy your day!}
