Question

Smantha is driving from Richmond to Blacksburg. She has traveled 120 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how long will it take Smamtha to make the 210-mile trip?

A.) 1.5 hours
B.) 2.75 hours
C.) 3 hours
D.) 3.5 hours​

Answer 1

if samantha traveled 120 miles in 2 hours, this means that she traveled 60 miles in an hour.

to find out how long it’ll take her, you would have to divide 210 by 60

210 / 60 = 3.5 hours (3 and a half)

so, it will take 3.5 hours for samantha to make the 210-mile trip
