Question

It took 3.5 hours for an airplane traveling at a constant speed of 550 miles per hour to reach its destination. What distance did the airplane travel until it reached its destination

Answer 1

3225 miles in 3.5 hours

Explanation:

3 hours x 550 (per hour) = 1650

1/2 of 550 or 30 minutes = 275

275 x 0.5 (30 minutes) = 1375

1650 + 1375 = 3225 miles in 3.5 hours
