Question

[PLEASE HELP! WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST IF YOUR ANSWER IS CORRECT, AND ONLY IF ITS CORRECT!]

A plane can fly 7 miles per minute. The plane will fly 8 trips, and each trip is 810 miles. How many hours will the plane fly? Please show your work.

Answer 1

Each trip is 810 miles, at 7 miles per minute each journey takes 810/7 minutes or 115.71 minutes  

8 trips take 115.71 x 8 = 925.68 minutes  

925.68/60=15.43 hours

Answer 2

810 divided by 7 = about 115.7 minutes. Round that to 116 minutes. Multiply by 8 to get about 925.6 minutes. Divide by 60 to get about 15 5/12 hours.
