Answer:

6 hours

Explanation:

Let's highlight/bold some important terms.

A car drives 60 mph. Write and solve an eqaution to find the number of hours it takes the car to travel 360 miles.

So we know Speed multiplied by Time is equal to distance, or commonly known as;

S · T = D

So since we know this, we can substitute the values for the variables.

We know the mph is 60. And that's our speed.

The equation is now 60 · T = D

We know that the total distance the car needs to cover is 360.

The equation is now 60 · T = 360

Now we need to find the time it took.

We divide 360/60 to find out the total number of hours it took, and we get 6.

So the answer is that it took 6 hours to travel 360 miles with a speed of 60 mph.
