Question

Ella traveled at an average speed of 65 per hour for 2.5 hours and then traveled at an average speed of 60 miles per hour for 3.5 hours. What was the total distance in miles traveled by Ella? *

Answer 1

372.5 miles

Explanation:

First, find how many miles she traveled at 65 mph:

65(2.5)

= 162.5

Then, find how many she traveled at 60 mph:

60(3.5)

= 210

Add these together:

162.5 + 210

= 372.5

So, Ella traveled 372.5 miles in total
