Answer:
48 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
A bus travels 36 miles in 45 minutes
In 60 minutes, travelling at this rate, the bus would cover:
[tex]\frac{60}{45}[/tex] × 36 miles = 48 miles
Rate = 36 miles/45 min = 0.8 miles per min
Distance traveled = 0.8 miles per min = 60 min = 48 miles
When there are two terms in different units this is called a rate. Rate and ratio are different in this case it is a special ratio. In this problem the rate is units of miles per minutes.
