The distance from Phoenix to Los Angeles is 400 miles. A car traveled this distance in 6 hours and 40 minutes. What was the average speed of the car in miles per hour?

Respuesta :

The answer would be 60 mph.
Average speed= [tex] \frac{Distance covered}{time taken} [/tex]
Average speed=[tex] \frac{400 miles}{6 \frac{2}{3} } [/tex]
Average speed= 400 miles÷[tex] \frac{20}{3} [/tex]
Average speed= 400 miles*[tex] \frac{3}{20} [/tex]
Average speed= 60miles/hour
