If the distance from Devin’s home to his workplace is 13 miles then his expected amount of time to get to work is ____ minutes.

PLEASE EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER

Answer 1

Answer: 17.33 minutes

Explanation:

To solve for time use the formula for time, t = d/s which means time equals distance divided by speed.

time = distance/speed

45/13= 0.288888

0.288888 * 60 (for minutes) = 17.33
