b

c
280 minutes
d
602 minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

c. 280 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

14 miles = 14× 1.6= 22.4

14 miles = 14× 1.6= 22.422.4÷112= 0.2

14 miles = 14× 1.6= 22.422.4÷112= 0.235miles = 35×1.6=56

14 miles = 14× 1.6= 22.422.4÷112= 0.235miles = 35×1.6=56therefore

14 miles = 14× 1.6= 22.422.4÷112= 0.235miles = 35×1.6=56therefore56×0.2= 280

Answer 2

Answer:

(c). 280 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

$speed=\frac{distance}{time}$

$time =\frac{distance}{speed}$

~~~~~~

t = 35 ÷ $\frac{14}{112}$ = $\frac{35*112}{14}$ = 280 minutes
