Answer:

The answer is 12 hours

Explanation:

To find the time taken for an object to travel given it's velocity and distance covered we use the formula


time = (distance)/(speed) \\

From the question

distance = 480 miles

speed = 40 mi/h

So we have


time = (480)/(40) = (48)/(4) \\

We have the final answer as

12 hours

Hope this helps you
