Question 652516: How fast is a car going that only travels 10 miles in 2 1/2 hours?
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20060) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Since it goes 10 miles in 2 1/2 hours, it goes twice that far or
20 miles in twice as many hours, or 5 hours. Therefore it goes 1/5
of that distance or 4 miles in 1 hour. So it's going 4 miles per hour.
You'd be better off walking than driving a car that slow.
