a jet travels at 435.6 miles per hour. how far will it travel in 6.75 hours?
435.6 * 6.75 = ?
thank you ms.sue
To find out how far the jet will travel in 6.75 hours, you can use the formula:
Distance = Speed × Time
First, let's convert the speed from miles per hour (mph) to miles per minute (mpm), since the time is given in hours.
To convert mph to mpm, divide the speed by 60:
435.6 mph ÷ 60 = 7.26 mpm (rounded to two decimal places)
Now, we can calculate the distance by multiplying the speed (in mpm) by the time (in minutes):
7.26 mpm × 6.75 hours = 49.05 miles (rounded to two decimal places)
Therefore, the jet will travel approximately 49.05 miles in 6.75 hours.
