Question

steve fossett was the first person to make a solo hot air balloon trip all the way around the world. this means he traveled about 20,400 miles in 15 days. what was his average speed in miles per hour? round your answer to the nearest whole number

Answer 1

Distance divided by time is speed. i divided 20,400 into 360. 360 is the hours. To get 360 you must multiply 15 for the amount of days and 24 in hours. which is 360. 20,400 divided by 360 is 57
