Answer:

The plane was traveling at 800 mph

Explanation:

Step 1: Find the total number of minutes flown by airplane

3 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 180 180 + 33 = 213 total minutes

Step 2: Divide the number of miles flown by the number of minutes

2840 miles / 213 minutes = 13.3333333 miles/minute

Step 3: Multiply the number of miles/minute by 60 to calculate the number of miles/hour

13.3333333 miles/minute * 60 minutes/hour = 800 miles/hour
