Question

ASAP NO LINKS EXPLANATION PLEASE a boat traveled 400 miles in 8 hours find its rate of speed in miles per hours

Answer 1

Answer: It would be 50 MPH

Explanation:

400/4=100 miles

8/4=2 hours

so now you divide by two

100/2=50 miles

2/2=1 hour

or you could go directly to dividing by 8

400/8=50 miles

8/8=1 hour

Answer 2

50 miles per hours

Explanation:

400 miles per 8 hours is the same as

200 miles for 4 hours which is the same as

100 miles for 2 hours which is still the same as

50 miles per hour

I just divided each one by two until I reached the unit rate
