Question

Juan drove 504 miles in 8 hours.

At the same rate, how long would it take him to drive 693 miles?

Answer 1

11 hours

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to find how long it takes him to drive 1 mile at that rate.

504 miles, 8 hours is the information we have, and they are asking us how long it would take him to drive 693 miles.

So, if we divide 8 by 504, we can determine how much time it would take him to drive one mile.

8/504 = 0.0159 hrs per Mile

Because we know the unit time for one mile, we can multiply it by 693, the target distance to derive our answer.

`0.0159 * 693 = 11 hours`

Your answer is 11 hours.
