First, let's convert those 50 minutes into hours:

This way,


x=(50\cdot1)/(60)\Rightarrow x=0.83

I would have driven for 5.83 hours.

Using this, and the average pace (46 miles in one hour),

We get that:


x=(46\cdot5.83)/(1)\Rightarrow x=268.18

I would have traveled 268.18 miles

You travel 5 hours and 50 minutes. If you drove at an average of 41 mph, how much-example-1
