Given:

You are traveling at an average speed of 60 miles per hour

To find:

How long will it take to go from mile marker 1 to mile marker 7

Solution:

First, we will calculate the distance

The distance is from mile marker 1 to 7

= 7-1

= 6 miles

We have been given speed as 60 miles per hour

We just have to apply formula of time

Time = Distance/ speed

= 6/60

= 1/10 hr

We will convert hour into minutes

1 hr = 60 minutes

1/10 hr = 1/10*60

= 6 min

Hence, the answer is 6 mins.
