Question

A car is traveling at a rate of 90 kilometers per hour. What is the car's rate in kilometers per minute? How many kilometers will the car travel in 15 minutes? Do not round your answers.

Answer 1

Divide an hour into minutes, and what do you get? Do the same for the unit.

Answer 2

@bloopman dividing a hour into minutes would be 60. Dividing 90 hours into minutes would be 5,400 minutes. What do I do next?

Answer 3

90 kilometers, not hours. If it travels 90 kilometers per hour, then we can divide 90/60 to get kilometers per minute. This is 3/2 kilometers per minute.

Answer 4

Now, rate * time = distance.

Answer 5

@bloopman 22.5?

Answer 6

Correct.

Answer 7

Thank you :)
