Hello!

What does this problem want:

==> how far will the car have traveled in 5 hours

What we must find ==> how many miles does the car travel in an hour


\text{Rate}=\frac{61.5 \text{ miles}}{2 \text{ hours}} =30.75\text{ miles per hour}

Therefore: the car will travel in 5 hours

5 * 30.75 = 153.75 miles

Hope that helps!
