Question

A car traveled 25 miles in 1/5 of an

hour. At the same speed, how many
miles will the car travel in 1 hour?

Answer 1

in 1 hour it can travel 5(25)= 125 miles

Answer 2

125 miles

Explanation:

1/5 of a n hour =
`(1)/(5)*60` = 12 minutes

Distance traveled in 12 minutes (1/5 of an hour) = 25 miles

Distance traveled in 1 minutes = 25 ÷ 12 =
`(25)/(12)`

Distance traveled in 1 hour (60 minutes) =
`(25)/(12)*60 = 25*5 = 125 miles`
