Question
On a field trip Kayla's school bus travels 120 miles in 3 hours. How far did it go in 2 hours?
Responses
A 40 miles
B 60 miles
C 80 miles
D 160 miles
To find the distance the school bus traveled in 2 hours, we can set up a proportion:
3 hours = 120 miles
2 hours = x miles
Using cross multiplication, we have:
3x = 2 * 120
3x = 240
x = 80
Therefore, the school bus traveled 80 miles in 2 hours.
The answer is C) 80 miles.
