Problema Solution
a race car driver won a 500 mile race with a speed of 117.88 miles per hour. find the driver's time.
Answer provided by our tutors
The speed is equal to distance divided by time.
Or if we mark by 'v' the speed, 's' the distance and 't' the time we have:
v = 117.88 miles per hour
s = 500 miles
v = s / t
t = s / v
t = 500 / 117.88
t = 4.24160 hours approximately
t = 4 hours 14 min 29.76 second approximately
