Question

Juan drove 360 miles in 5 hours.

At the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 504 miles?

Answer 1

• 7 hours

Explanation:

This is a proportional relationship.

Use ratios:

• 360/5 = 504/x
• 504/x = 72
• x = 504/72
• x = 7

Answer 2

it would take him to 7 hours drive 504 miles.

Explanation:

360 miles → 5 hours

1 miles → (5/360) hours

504 miles → [(5/360)*504] hours

504 miles → 7 hours
