Doug drive at a constant speed on 33 miles per hour.
⇒ 1 hour = 33 miles
Find the distance he would have traveled in 5 hours:
1 hour = 33 miles
5 hours = 33 x 5 = 165 miles
Answer: No, he will not make it in time.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Additional note:
Find the speed that he needs to travel in
Distance = 273 miles
Time = 5 hours
Speed = Distance ÷ Time
Speed = 273 ÷ 5 = 54.6 miles/hour
He needs to travel 54.6 miles per hour to make it by deadline
