Question

After 5.5 hours, Allie had traveled 264 miles. If she travels at a constant speed, how far will she have traveled in 6 hours?

Answer 1

Answer:

288 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x (speed)

5.5x = 264

Divide by 5.5

x = 48

y = 48x

Subsitute 6 hours in for x

y = 48(6)

y = 288

Answer 2

Answer: Allie went 288 miles in 6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you must find out how many miles Allie travled in one hour

= 264/5.5

= 48

Next, multiply the quotient by the number of hours to get the answer.

= 48 x 6

= 288
