Question

Tom drove at a constant speed 50 mph for 2.5 hours Albert drove at a constant speed of 65 mph for 2 hours. How many more total miles did Albert drive than tom?

Answer 1

5 miles

Explanation:

distance = speed · time

Tom's distance = (50 mi/h)·(2.5 h) = 125 mi

Albert's distance = (65 mi/h)·(2 h) = 130 mi

Albert drove 130 -125 = 5 miles farther than Tom.
