Question

Traveling at 65 miles per hour how many minutes rounded to the nearest whole number does it take to drive 126 miles from San Diego to Malibu

Answer 1

116 minutes

Explanation:

speed = distance/time

speed * time = distance

time = distance/speed

time = 126 miles / 65 mph

time = 126/65 hours

time = 126/65 hours * (60 minutes)/(1 hour) = 116 minutes

Answer 2

65 miles per hour / 60 minutes per hour = 1.083 miles per minute.

126 miles/ 1.083 miles per minute = 116.03 minutes

Rounded to nearest whole number = 116 minutes.
