Answer:

If a car can go 200 miles in 6 hours at a constant rate, in 7 hours it will have gone 233.33 (0.33 repeating) miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a car can go 200 miles in 6 hours, then we know it can go about 33.33 miles per hour (found by dividing 200 by 6).

If the car is going at this constant rate we can then multiply 33.33 by 7, which would give us 233.33.

The car can go 233.33 miles in 7 hours

What is Ratio and proportion ?

A comparison of two entities by dividing them is called Proportion and when two ratios are equated to one another , they are said to be in proportion.

It is given in the question that

a car can go 200 miles in 6 hours

Distance covered in 7 hours

In the given question the ratio of Distance covered and time is

200/6 = 100/3 = 100:3

Let the distance covered in 7 hours is x

therefore the ratio will be x : 7

These two ratios will be in proportion

100:3 = x: 7

100/3 = x / 7

x = 100 * 7 / 3

x = 700 / 3

x = 233.33 miles

Therefore The car can go 233.33 miles in 7 hours .
