How long will it take u to drive 175 miles at the speed of 25 miles per hour

Question

It’s a math problem 

Answer 1

Hi Key.

 

Lets think about this.  At 25 miles per hour, that means that you can travel 25 miles in 1 hour.

 

So after 1 hour has passed, you have driven 25 miles.

After 2 hours have passed, you have driven 50 miles

After 3 hours have passed you have driven 75 miles

After 4 hours has passed you have driven 100 miles

After 5 hours has passed you have driven 125 miles

After 6 hours has passed, you have driven 150 miles

After 7 hours has passed, you have driven 175 miles.

 

And we have found the answer.  It takes 7 hours.

 

Mathematically,  if we take 175 miles and divide by 25 miles/hour,  we find 175/25 = 7 hours.

Answer 2

1 hr/25mi  x  175 mi = 7 hr
