Why was this answer down-voted?  The solution is correct.  The down-vote is frivolous and unjustified.

It’s not accurate. I would have to be going 90mph to get there in .75hrs. Think about it this way. 60mph drive 60 miles in 60 min 120mph drive 60 miles in 30 min So if u split the difference u would have to drive 90 mph to go 60 miles in 45 min or.75hrs as u mention above. That’s why it was downgraded. It was a math question and ur answer was wrong.

The correct relation is time = distance/speed = (60 miles)/(80 miles/hr) = 0.75 hrs The answer I gave is correct. Look up the formula.
