Respuesta :

It is given that Laura drove 819 miles in 13 hours.

Recall that the rate is given by

[tex]Rate=\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}[/tex]

So, the rate at which Layra drove is

[tex]Rate=\frac{819}{13}=63\; mph[/tex]

At the same rate (63 mph) how long would it take her to drive 315 miles?

Re-writing the above formula for time,

[tex]time=\frac{\text{distance}}{\text{Rate}}=\frac{315}{63}=5\; hours[/tex]

Therefore, it would take her 5 hours.
