Traveling at 55 miles per hour,approximately how long will it take Michael to drive 250 miles?
(1) between 1 and 2 hours
(2) between 2 and 3 hours
(3) between 3 and 4 hours
(4) between 4 and 5 hours
(5) between 5 and 6 hours
I think the answer is 4?
Yes, 4.
Thank you Very much Ms.Sue
To find the approximate time it will take Michael to drive 250 miles at a speed of 55 miles per hour, we can use the formula:
Time = Distance / Speed
Plugging in the values, we have:
Time = 250 miles / 55 miles per hour
We can now calculate this:
Time ≈ 4.55 hours
Since the question is asking for an approximation, we can round this to the nearest hour, which is 5 hours.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
(5) between 5 and 6 hours
