Answer:

Isabella would have gone 270 miles in 180 minutes.

Explanation:

60 times 3 = 180

There are 60 minutes in one hour, and there are three hours.

180 divided by 30 = 6

180 is divided by 30 because the rate of speed we know is 45 miles in 30 minutes.

45 times 6 = 270

There were 6 30s in 180, so 45 is multiplied by 6.

hope this helps

Answer: 270 miles

Explanation:

an hour contains 60 minutes and 3 hours contain 180 minutes so all you have to do is 180 divided by 30 which equals 6 and multiply 6 by 45 and that's your answer on how far she went.
