Question

A car drove 300 miles in four hours. How fast was the car traveling in miles per hour?

Answer 1

Given that,

A car drove 300 miles in four hours.

We can simply put it in this way.

In 4 hours, a total distance covered by the car = 300 miles

In 1 hour, a total distance covered by the car = 300/4 miles = 75 miles.

Hence, the car was traveling at a speed of 75 miles per hour.
