Question

A car traveled a distance of 126 miles in 3 hours. Traveling at the same speed, what distance would this car travel in 7 hours?
54 miles
63 miles
252 miles
294 miles

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

speed =Distance/time

=126/3

=42mile/he

Distance=speed ×time

=42×7

=294 miles

Answer 2

Distance = 473.1461 km = 294 miles

Option 4 (294 miles) is correct option

Step-by-step explanation:

GIVEN

Distance = 126 miles = 202.777 km

Time = 3 hours

___________________________

TO FIND

What distance would this car travel in 7 hours

___________________________

We know that,

Speed = Distance / Time

Distance = Speed × Time

Time = Distance / Speed

___________________________

To find what distance would this car travel in 7 hours

We need to find speed

We know that,

Speed = Distance / Time

Speed = 202.777 / 3

Speed = 67.5923333333

Speed = 67.5923 km/h = 42 miles / h

___________________________

Now

Let's find what distance would this car travel in 7 hours

We know that,

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 67.5923 × 7

Distance = 473.1461

Distance = 473.1461 km = 294 miles

Option 4 (294 miles) is correct option
