The speed 450km/hour tells us that the balloon travels 450km in one hour. To find how much it traveled in 2.5 hours, we multiply 450 by 2.5.

450 x 2.5 = 1125 km

Therefore, the balloon traveled 1125 km in 2.5 hours

Answer:

1,125 km

Explanation:

So you want to find out how far the balloon went and we already know how fast and how long it's been traveling for. So now, all you have to do is come up with an equation which looks like:

2.5 x 450

Which equals 1,125 km.
