Answer:

7:24 pm

Explanation:

speed = distance/time

time * speed = distance

time = distance/speed

time = (195 miles)/(50 miles/hour)

time = 3.9 hours

The trip will take 3.9 hours.

3 hours + 0.9 hours = 3 hours + 0.9 hours * 60 minutes/hour =

= 3 hours + 54 minutes

The trip will take 3 hours and 54 minutes.

3:30 pm + 3:54 = 6:84 pm = 7:24 pm

Answer: 7:24 pm
