how long will it take a car to travel 400 mi at an average rate of 50 mph

Answer 1

Hi Daniki H

Distance = Rate x Time

D= rt

t = D/r

D=400 miles

r = 50 mph

Can you plug in the values and continue?

Answer 2

Hello, thank you for taking the time to post your question!

You can actually just divide the two values that are given in order to find the length of time

Distance = Rate x Time

400 miles = 50 mph x Time

400/50 = Time

8 = Time

So it would end up taking 8 hours to drive this distance!

I hope that helps get you moving in the right direction! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions beyond that :)
