Okay lets get started.
I drove 110 miles with speed of 55 mi/hr so the time taken =
time = distance / speed
time = 110 / 55 = 2 hrs For the distance which is covered with 55 mi/hr speed.
Total time for reaching home is 4 hrs 15 minutes. (given in question)
Means rest distance after snow is covered in = 4 hrs 15 minutes - 2 hrs
= 2 hrs 15 minutes = 2 + 15/60 = 2.25 hrs
The speed in snow driving is 35 mi/hr
So distance covered in snow driving is = 2.25 * 35 = 78.75 miles
Hence the total distance = 110 + 78.75 = 188.75 miles : Answer
Hope that will help :)
