Solve the word problem.

The formula d = rt gives the distance traveled in time t at rate r. A delivery truck drives for 1.5 hours and travels 76 miles.

What was the average speed of the truck?

A.
38 miles per hour

B.
50.7 miles per hour

C.
74.5 miles per hour

D.
114 miles per hour

Answer 1

You find the distance by multiplying the rate and time together. So, to find the rate, you'll have to divide the distance by the time. Which is 76/1.5=50.6666667, which is the equivalent to 50.7, therefore your answer is B.
