Question

Belle is 450 kilometers north of her exit on a freeway. She is driving at a constant velocity of 50 kilometers per hour to the south. How long will she have to drive to get one-third of the way to her exit

Answer 1

Well, first you have to get 1/3 of 450. To do that you can do 450 ÷ 3. This would five you 150. After that you could do 150 ÷ 50. Which would give you 3.


Belle would have to drive 3 hours.

Answer 2

It would take her 3 hours
