You traveled from Paris to London averaging 40 kilometers per hour and it took 3 and a half hours. What was the distance you traveled?
kilometers
Thank you.
40 x 3 = 120
Half of 40 is 20
120 + 20 = 140 km
To calculate the distance you traveled, you can use the formula:
Distance = Speed * Time
In this case, the speed is given as 40 kilometers per hour, and the time is given as 3 and a half hours.
First, let's convert the time into a decimal number. 3 and a half hours is equivalent to 3.5 hours.
Now, we can substitute the values into the formula:
Distance = 40 km/h * 3.5 h
To find the solution, simply multiply the speed (40 km/h) by the time (3.5 h):
Distance = 40 km/h * 3.5 h = 140 km
Therefore, the distance you traveled from Paris to London is 140 kilometers.
