Question

Driving on the North West Expressway, Debbie averaged 62 miles per hour for 3 1/4 hours. How far did she drive?

Answer 1

the easiest way to solve this is to look at units:

speed is in: miles/hour
time is given in: hours
distance ( what we want) is given in: miles

so in oreder to get miles, we need to multiply the speed by the time:

62 miles/hour*3.25 hours
the hours cancel out and leave us with miles:

62*3.25 = 201.5 miles
