Question

Natasha is driving 300 miles and wants to make the trip in 5 hours.

Which equation and solution shows the average speed, s, that Natasha needs to drive in order to make her trip in five hours?

Answer 1

Start with what you know.

300 miles in 5 hours. So divide 300 by 5, and you get 60 miles/hour.

Answer 2

rate = 300 / 5 = 60 miles per hour.
5 hours times 60 miles per hour equals 5 * 60 = 300 miles
natasha would have to average 60 miles per hour in order to be able to drive 300 miles in 5 hours.
