The answer to the question posed is trivial, in 5 hours you will travel 5 hours. I suspect you meant to write "...how many miles..." If that is true, then multiply 5 times 62. The "per" in "miles per hour" means "for each". So, if you travel one hour at 62 mile for each hour, you will travel 62 miles, 2 hours at 62 miles for each hour is 62 miles for the first hour and 62 miles for the second hour for a total of 124 hours. And so on.
By the way, the most common problem among mathematics students of all ages and levels of mathematical study is inattention to detail. This problem is more frequent than all others. Just sayin'.
