Answer:

48 miles per hour

Explanation:

To calculate the speed you would divide the distance of 204 miles by the time of 4 hours and 15 minutes. Then you should divide the distance by the time

1) you should first divide the minutes by 60 to convert it into a decimal.


15/60=0.25\\

2) After divide the distance by 4.25 to work out the speed.


204/4.25=48 m/h
