At 55 miles per hour, how far would a car travel in 4 hours?

Step 1. Distance = Speed x time.

Step 2. Speed= 55 mph where mph is miles per hour

Step 3. Time = 4 hours

Step 4. Distance = (55 miles/hour) times (4 hours) = 220 miles

Step 5. Answer = 220 miles

Note in the above steps, I made sure the units make sense. For example, miles is one measure for distance.

Hope the steps were helpful. Good luck in your studies.
