Question

You traveled from paris to london averaging 40 kilometers per hour and it took 3 and a half hours. what was the distance you traveled? kilometers

Answer 1

3 hours times 40 =120 plus half of 40, so 20 plus 120 = 140km.

Answer 2

Hi!

The answer is 140 kilometers.

Explanation:

You can solve this problem using Rule of three:

1 hour ---> 40km

3.5 hours ----> x

Now you have to multiply 3.5 hours by 40kms, then divide the result for 1 hour.

`x = (3.5 hour * 40km)/(1hour)` //hour divided by hour is 1.

`x = 140km`
