Answers
Answer:
16 / 3 hours ; 320 minutes ; 19200 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
If an airplane flies 1200 km per hour, and we want to know how long it would take to fly 6400 km, we can cross multiply.
( 1200 km / 1 h ) = (6400 km / ? h )
Cross multiply to get:
(1200 km x ? h) = (6400 km x 1 h)
(1200 km x ? h) = (6400 km x h)
Lets divide both sides by 1200 km to solve!
(1200 km x ? h) / (1200 km) = (6400 km x h) / (1200 km)
(Simplify the fraction 6400 over 1200)
? h = 16 / 3 hour
That is the answer!! If you want a nicer answer, we can convert to seconds. By multiply how many seconds are in an hour.
(There are 60 minutes in 1 hour)
(There are 3600 seconds in 1 hour)
16 / 3 hours is the same as:
(16 / 3) x 60 which is 320 minutes, which is the same as:
(16 / 3) x 3600 which is 19200 seconds !!!
Let me know if there is anything I can explain better next time!
