You can put this solution on YOUR website!
t=%2845_min%29%281_hr%2F60_min%29=%283%2F4%29_hours First convert 45 minutes to hours


D=rt Start with the distance-rate-time formula



D=%2860%29%283%2F4%29 Plug in t=3%2F4 and r=60


D=45 Multiply


So you can go 45 km in 45 minutes if you are traveling 60km/h
