Question

A bus traveled 336 traveled 336 miles in 7 hours. If the continues at the same number of miles per hour, how many miles will the bus travel in 15 hours? Explain

Answer 1

The bus traveled 720 miles with constant speed.

Explanation:

Given,

Distance = 336 miles

time = 7 hrs

We have to find out the distance traveled by the bus in 15 hours with constant speed.

Solution,

Since we know that the speed is equal to distance divided by time.

So the equation can be framed as;

`speed=(336)/(7)=48\ mi/h`

Now time = 15 hrs

Distance traveled is equal to speed multiplied with time.

So the equation can be framed as;

`Distance\ traveled=48*15=720\ miles`

Hence The bus traveled 720 miles with constant speed.
