Question 759464: A car travels at 500km/hr. How far would it travel in 2 1/2 hours?
The answer that is given is 187 1/2. I am not getting this. This is a problem on rational numbers and the concept of distance=speed*time has not been taught yet. Answer by josgarithmetic(39615) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! The reason that you do not understand the answer given is because THAT answer is wrong. You have the correct formula and studying it only requires about 5 to 7 minutes. {R kilometers/hour} * {t hours} = R*t kilometers.
Based on that, the distance is
which is 1250 kilometers.
