Answer:

50mph

Explanation:

Speed (v) is equal to distance (d) divided by time (t)

so we have the formula
v=(d)/(t)

Adrian needs to be at his grandmother's house in 3 hours so
t=3

His grandmother's house is 150 miles away so
d=150

now we can plug these values into our formula and we get
v=(150)/(3)


(150)/(3) =50

So, Adrian needs to drive at 50 miles per hour to get to his grandmother's house in three hours.
