Distance equal for both trips.\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "R*T=D and since you could make two equations for each speed, they are representing the same distance.\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "\"65%2A8=40%2Ax\", which is \"65%28miles%2Fhour%298%28hours%29=D=40%28miles%2Fhour%29x%2Ahours\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"65%2A8%2F40=40%2Ax%2F40\"
