Solution(s):
1) What distance did a car travel that went 70 mph for 6 hours?
Given:
Multiply the RHS by 6 to see what distance was covered by the car in 6 hours.
- 70 miles = 1 hour
- => 70 x 6 miles = 6 hours
- => 420 miles = 6 hours
The car traveled 420 miles in 6 hours.
2) What is the perimeter of a rectangle with a length of 7 cm and a width of 4 cm?
Given:
- Length: 7 cm
- Breadth: 4 cm
Formula to find perimeter: 2(L) + 2(B)
Substitute the values into the formula to find the perimeter.
- 2(L) + 2(B)
- => 2(7) + 2(4)
- => 14 + 8
- => 22 cm
The perimeter of the rectangle is 22 cm.
