A rollercoaster travels at 120 miles per hour on its track for 3 minutes.
A. 3 minutes is what part of an hour?
B Use a formula and your answer from above to calculate the distance traveled.
A. I got 1/20 or 5%
B. Not sure what formula to use. But I got .40 of a mile
What do you think of my answers?
A is ok.
So, 120 mi/hr * 1/20 hr = 6 mi
it would be nice had you shown your work...
