Question

It has taken me 32 minutes to drive 48 km. If the total length of my journey is 146 km and I

maintain the same speed, estimate how much longer I will be driving for.

Answer 1

Answer: 1h and 25min

To find how long you can drive in a minute we do 48 divided by 32 = 1.5. So it takes 1 min to drive 1.5km

Then we 146 divided by 1.5 = 97 and a third to find out how long it takes to drive 146km.

Then we convert it to hours to get 1h and 57min.

Then we - 32 because we already drove 32min. 1h and 57min - 32 = 1h and 25min
