Answer:

70 miles per hour

Explanation:

We want to find the average speed. We should find the speed in miles per hour, so we must divide the miles traveled by the hours.

miles/hours

We traveled 280 miles in 4 hours.

280 miles/4 hours

Divide.

70 miles / hour

The average speed is 70 miles per hour.
