Hello,
\n" ); document.write( "Let's look at a word in the problem and then it might make sense.
\n" ); document.write( "100mph can be written out as 100 miles per hour. The word \"per\" means
\n" ); document.write( "\"for each\" so it can be written as:
\n" ); document.write( "100 miles for each hour
\n" ); document.write( "Since 15 minutes is only 1/4 of an hour, we'd multiply 1/4 times 100 which gives us:
\n" ); document.write( "25 miles
\n" ); document.write( "Make sense?
