If you are going 2 mph and have 550 miles to travel how many days will it take you?

Step 1. time = distance/speed = 550 miles / 2mph= 275 hours

Step 2. 1 day = 24 hours. Then 275 hours * 1 day/24 hours = 11.458 days.

Step 3. ANSWER: 11.458 days.

I hope the above steps were helpful.

Velocity = Distance / Time,,,,or T= D/V
.
T= 550 miles / 2 MPH = 275 Hrs
.
How many days depends on how long you drive each day
.
If you drive 24 hrs / day,,,,t= 275 hrs * 1 day/24 hrs = 11.5 days
.
If you drive a more realistic 8 hrs per day,,t= 275 hrs * 1 day/ 8 hrs= 34.375 days
.
