Question

Solving a word problem on proportions using a unit rate

Alonzo drove 335 miles in 5 hours.
At the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 469 miles?

Answer 1

7 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 5 and 335 then multiply by 469

because 5 / 339 will be time for one mile and then multiply by 469 will be number of hours for 469 miles

5 / 339 × 469 =7 hours
