Question

The travel distance from Atimonan, Quezon to Marikina City is about 177.0 Kilometers. In 5 hours and 53 minutes. How many kilometers did it drive in an hour.

Answer 1

It drove 30.08 kilometers in an hour.

Explanation:

This question is solved by proportions, using a rule of three.

In this question:

177 kilometers in 5*60 + 53 = 353 minutes.

How many kilometers in 1 hour = 60 minutes?

177 km - 353 min

x km - 60 min

`353x = 60*177`

`x = (60*177)/(353)`

`x = 30.08`

It drove 30.08 kilometers in an hour.
