If Clarence drives 60 miles per hour, it will take him 3 hours to drive

to Concordia. How many minutes longer will it take to make the trip
if he drives 48 miles per hour?

Explanation:

Distance = rate x time = 60 mi/hr * 3 hr = 180 mi

distance / rate = time = 180 mi / 48 mi/hr = 3.75 hr

it will take .75 hr longer which is 45 minutes longer
