If a car travels 147 miles in 3 hours, how long will it take the car to travel 245 miles?
A) 5 hours
B) 6 hours
C) 4 hours
D) 8 hours
It will take the car 5 hours to travel 245 miles.
To calculate this, you can set up a proportion:
147 miles / 3 hours = 245 miles / x hours
Cross multiply to solve for x:
147 * x = 3 * 245
147x = 735
x = 735 / 147
x = 5
Therefore, the answer is A) 5 hours.
