Answer: 490 miles!
Explanation:
350 x 7hrs divided by 5hrs would be = 490miles
- multiple 350 and 7 ( 350x7) which will equal 2450 then divide by 5 and you will get 490 miles
How did I get 490? or why didn't you do 350 x 5?
Well because the question asks how many miles would he drive in 7 hours? you will need to multiple the droven miles which is 350miles because that is part of the getting answer, and the question of having to know how many miles would he drive in 7 hours, you wouldn't do 350 x 5 because its not asking " Ahmad drove 350 miles in 5 hours, how many miles would he drive in 5 hours? and which would equal 250 which not correct because it doesn't make sense if he's drove 350 miles in 5 hours and then drove 250miles in 7 hours, back to the explanation, after multiplying 350 into 7 you will end up at 2450, no this isn't the answer you need to divide because it would take more than 7 hours to drive 2450 miles, next you divide by the hours driven in 350 miles which in this in this case would be 5 because your diving 2450 by 5 because sense u cannot get the answer by multiplying 350x5 so this is time where your gonna use the 5 because 350 x 7= 2450 is too large in miles for 7 hours your gonna divide the 2450 to lower it down to 490 miles, doesn't that sound more accurate? the miles increase by 1.4 ( 140 miles ) so another way u could have gotten the answer was by doing 350 + 140 = 490 but however you would need to know how much the miles have increase which u can do by 490 - 350 which equals to 140 miles.
