Question

If a train travels at 66 mph for 10 min, what is the distance traveled?

Answer 1

d = 11 miles

Explanation:

We can use the formula d= rt where d is the distance, r is the rate and t is the time.

We need to convert the time to hours since the rate is in miles per hour

10 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 1/6 hour

d = 66 miles per hour * 1/6 hour

d = 11 miles

Answer 2

11 miles

Explanation:

find how many miles per minute

66 / 60 = 1.1

find how many miles in 10 minutes

1.1 • 10 = 11

11 miles
