How many hours did the trip take?

Question

A group of college students eager to get to Florida on a spring break drove the 795-mi trip with only minimum stops. They computed their average speed for the trip to be 55.1 mi/h.How many hours did the trip take?

 

= ? h

Answer 1

you can solve this question by using this law speed = distance / time 

speed = 55.1 mi/hr

distance = 795 mi

time = distance / speed,  after rearrange the equation

time = 795 / 55.1---->time = 14.42 hrs
