You ride in a train for 175 miles at an average speed of 50 miles and hour how many hours is the trip?
Formula is r*t = d where r is the rate of speed, t is time, and d is distance.
You know the rate is 50, but you don't know time, and distance is 175, so your equation is 50t = 175.
To solve, divide each side by 50 and simplify.
50t/50 = 175/50
t = 3.5 hours
