Question

Which equation could be used to solve the problem?

Zack drove 61 mi in 1 h. At that rate, how many miles (d) will he drive in 4 h?

A.
d = 61 – 4

B.
d = 61 ÷ 4

C.
d = 61 • 4

D.
d = 61 + 4

Answer 1

With the given speed and the time traveled, we can solve for the distance by using the distance formula: distance = speed x time:

Substituting the given values to the equation:

d = 61 • 4

Among the choices, the correct answer is C.
