Question

Maureen drove for 1.5 hours at an average speed of 62 mph and then for another half hour at an average speed of 24 mph. How far did she drive altogether?

Answer 1

105 mi

Explanation:

distance = speed x time

total distance = (62 mi/hr)(1.5 hr) + (24 mi/hr)(0.5 hr) = 105 mi

30 min = 0.50 hr
