Question 764537: I need help with this problem, please help me:
At Indianapolis Motor Speedway, one lap is 2.5 miles in length. The average speed of an Indy racing car is 190 miles per hour. Approximately how many seconds would it take to complete one lap?

This is a rate * time = distance problem
190 * t = 2.5
t = 2.5 / 190 = .01 hour
now there are 3600 seconds in an hour so i takes the Indy car 3600 * .01 = 36 seconds to make one lap
