Question

Gina has a meeting in 45 minutes. She is driving at a rate of 30 mi/hr. If she is 24 mi away , will she arrive on time? If not, how early or late will she be?

Answer 1

if she is driving at 30 miles a hour it takes two minutes to cover a mile 60 divided by 30

if she is driving at 2 minutes a mile and is going 24 miles it will take 48 minutes

2*24 =48

solution she is a slow driver she needs to pick up the pace or she will be 3 minutes late to work

45-48=-3
