Bill drove from Washington DC to Charlotte in 6.5 hours. What was his average speed in miles per hour?

Answer 1

If you search it up, the distance from Washington DC to Charlotte is 404.9 miles.

The formula for speed is distance divided by time. We can easily do that with this equation:

404.9 / 6.5 = 62.2923077, or about 63 miles per hour.
