Your question is never be solved so it seems.
To calculate the time it took to get to the store, we can use the formula:
Time (in hours) = Distance / Speed
In this case, the distance is given as 30 miles, and the average speed is given as 15 miles per hour. Plugging in these values into the formula, we get:
Time = 30 miles / 15 miles per hour
To simplify, we can divide 30 by 15:
Time = 2 hours
Therefore, it took you 2 hours to get to the store while traveling at an average speed of 15 miles per hour.
distance = rate x time
distance = 30 miles
rate = 15 miles per hour.
Substitute and solve for time in hours.
