Cheng drives 25 miles on a highway at a constant rate of 60 miles per hours. Jow much time does the trip take?
25/60 = ?
I don't get it because the choices are
A. 25 mins
B. 35 mins
C. 85 mins
D. 1500 mins
25/60 = 0.42 That's a part of an hour.
0.42 * 60 = 25.2 minutes
To find out how much time Cheng's trip takes, we can divide the distance he drives (25 miles) by his constant rate of speed (60 miles per hour).
The formula to calculate time is:
Time = Distance / Rate
Let's plug in the given values:
Time = 25 miles / 60 miles per hour
To solve this equation, we divide 25 by 60:
Time ≈ 0.42 hours
So, Cheng's trip takes approximately 0.42 hours or about 25 minutes and 12 seconds.
