Question

A car travels at 30 1/5 miles in 2/3 of an hour. What is the average speed in miles per hour of the car

Answer 1

Answer:

Adverage of 20 mph

30 1/5 = 30.2

2/3 = .6667

30.2 x .6667 = 20.13

Answer 2

Answer:

45.3 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

the information we have is:

distance:

$d=30\frac{1}{5}miles=30.2miles$

time:

$t=\frac{2}{3} hour$

the formula for the average speed is:

$v=\frac{distance}{time} =\frac{d}{t}$

substituting all the known values we get:

$v=\frac{30.2miles}{2/3hour} =\frac{3(30.2miles)}{2hour}= 45.3miles/hour$

the average speed in miles per hour is: 45.3
