First, let's figure out how many km the ship travels in 1 hour.
84 / 3.5 = 24 km
It travels 24 km in 1 hour.
Next, divide: 1050 / 24 = 43.75 hours or 1 day and 19.75 hours.
Another way to do this problem is to set up a proportion and cross multiply.
84 / 3.5 = 1050 / x
84x = 3675
x = 43.75
thank ya ur oh so kind! :)
