Problema Solution

bob needs to drive 592 miles to get to a family reunion. he travels 187 miles the first day. if he averages 52 miles per hour the second day, how long will it take him to reach his destination?

Answer provided by our tutors

Total distance to be travelled = 592 miles

DIstance already travelled in first day = 187 miles

So, distance left to be travelled in the second day = 592 - 187 = 405 miles

Average speed = 52 mph

Time = Distance/Speed = 405/52 = 7.788462 hours

 

ANS: It will take him 7.788462 hours or approximately 7 hours 47 minutes and 60 seconds
