If it takes Matthew an hour to get to his friend’s house, and two hours if he drives 25 mph slower, how far away does Matthew’s friend live?

50 miles. We can make the equation equal when we say 50mph*1=25mph*2.

50 miles. If he drives 50 mph it only takes 1 he. If he drives 25 mph slower, it takes twice as long.
