Question

A Boeing 747 airplane is flying at 885(km)/(hr). How many miles can it travel in 105 minutes? Note: 1 mile =1.6km.

Answer 1

To convert the speed from km/hr to miles/hr, multiply by the conversion factor of 1.6 km = 1 mile. The Boeing 747 airplane can travel approximately 57914.063 miles in 105 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the speed from km/hr to miles/hr, we need to use the conversion factor of 1.6 km = 1 mile.

First, we convert the speed from km/hr to miles/hr by multiplying by the conversion factor:

885 km/hr * (1 mile/1.6 km) = 553.125 miles/hr.

Next, we calculate the distance traveled in 105 minutes by multiplying the speed by the time:

553.125 miles/hr * 105 minutes = 57914.063 miles.

Therefore, the Boeing 747 airplane can travel approximately 57914.063 miles in 105 minutes.
