What is the distance in miles of a trip that takes 4 hours at an average speed of 20 miles per hour?

87% Answer Correctly
20 miles
315 miles
80 miles
55 miles

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)

Solving for distance:

distance = \( \text{speed} \times \text{time} \)
distance = \( 20mph \times 4h \)
80 miles


2

If a car travels 30 miles in 1 hour, what is the average speed?

86% Answer Correctly
65 mph
30 mph
50 mph
20 mph

Solution

Average speed in miles per hour is the number of miles traveled divided by the number of hours:

speed = \( \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}} \)
speed = \( \frac{30mi}{1h} \)
30 mph

2b6


4

Find the average of the following numbers: 14, 8, 14, 8.

74% Answer Correctly
