distance = 320 miles
time to be traveled less than 6 hours
speed = distance / time
320/6 = 40 mph.
you have to travel greater than 40mph to reach in less than 6 hours

---------
Formula: Rate = Distance/Time
---
rate = 320 miles/ 6 hrs = 54 mph.
---
To travel 320 miles is LESS THAN 6 Hrs. the rate would have to
be GREATER THAN 54 mph.
