Answer:

a truck driver can drive 64 miles in one hour

Explanation:

45 minutes / 60 = 0.75 hours - convert the time to hours, you should divide 45 minutes by 60 since there are 60 minutes in an hour

Now, you can use the formula:

Miles = (Speed) x (Time)

Miles = (48 miles) / (0.75 hours)

Miles = 64 miles
