a prince spent 10 hours riding on a horse at an average speed of 25 mph from his palace to the castle of a princess. a magic flying carpet brought both the prince and the princess back the his palace in 2 hours. what is the speed of the magic carpet
125mph
trust me
To find the speed of the magic carpet, we need to calculate the distance between the prince's palace and the princess's castle.
Since the prince spent 10 hours riding at an average speed of 25 mph, we can calculate the distance he traveled using the formula: Distance = Speed × Time.
Distance = 25 mph × 10 hours = 250 miles.
Now, since the magic flying carpet brought both the prince and the princess back from the castle to the palace in 2 hours, we can calculate the speed of the magic carpet by dividing the distance (250 miles) by the time (2 hours).
Speed = Distance / Time
Speed = 250 miles / 2 hours = 125 mph.
Therefore, the speed of the magic carpet is 125 mph.
10 hr at 25 mph is ...10 * 25 = ? mi
traveling back ... (10 * 25) mi / 2 hr = ? mph
