Answer:

1.395 hours

Explanation:

Time is proportional to distance, and inversely proportional to speed. The relationship is ...

time = distance/speed

For the given speed and distance, the time is ...

time = (60 mi)/(43 mi/h) = 60/43 h ≈ 1.395 h

At 43 mph, it will take about 1.395 hours to travel 60 miles.
