Question

eremiah flies an airplane for 2.7 hours at an average speed of 304.6 miles per hour. How far did Jeremiah fly?

Answer 1

Explanation:

• Time taken = 2.7 hours
• Average Speed = 304.6 mi/h

» Average Speed = Distance/Time

→ 304.6 mi/h = Distance/2.7 h

→ (304.6 ÷ 2.7) mi = Distance

→ 30460/270 mi = Distance

→ 3046/27 mi = Distance

→ 112.81 miles = Distance

Answer 2

Given :

• Average Speed = 304.6 miles
• Time taken = 2.7 hours

⠀

To Find :

• The distance.

⠀

Solution :

We know that,

`\qquad\pmb{ \bf{ \dashrightarrow{ Average \: speed {} = \frac { Distance } {Time \: taken}}}}`

⠀

Now, substituting the given values :

`\qquad\sf{ { \dashrightarrow{ 304.6 \: miles /hr{} = ( Distance)/(2.7 \: hr)}}} \: </p><p>`

⠀

By doing cross multiplication we get :

`\qquad\sf{ { \dashrightarrow{ Distance {} = {304.6 }*{2.7}}}} \: miles`

`\qquad\sf{ { \dashrightarrow{ Distance {} = 822.42}}} \: \: miles`

⠀

Therefore,

• Jeremiah flied 822.42 miles .
