Question

A car drove at 43 miles per hour for 7 hours. How many miles are left if the entire trip is 400 miles?

Answer 1

Answer:

99 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Now we are given that a car drove 43 miles per hour.

Hence the speed of the car is 43mph.

Now we are given that the car drove for 7 hours.

We know that the formula for speed is speed=distancetime .

Hence rearranging the terms we get distance=speed×time .

Now using this formula let us calculate the distance travelled by car in 7 hours at the speed of 43mph.

Hence we have 43×7=301 .

Hence the distance travelled by the car is 301 miles.

Now the total journey of the trip is given by 400 miles.

Hence the distance remaining to cover is 400 – 301 miles.

Hence the distance remaining is 99miles.
