Question

if the lake is 60 miles away and I am driving 40 miles per hour

the entire time how long will it take me to get to the lake

Answer 1

There is a formula for finding the time. Distance equals rate x time. Substitute and solve.

 

60=40t

 

t=60/40

 

The time it takes to get to the lake is 2 ½ hours.
