      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website! look at the spped. It has units. The units are miles PER hour...a distance divided by a time, so 
 speed is distance/time
 
 so,
 30 = 43/t
 30t = 43
 t = 43/30
 --> t = 1.4333 hours
 
 this is 1 hour and 0.43333 of an hour
 
 0.4333 of an hour (60 minutes) is 04333*60 --> 26 minutes
 
 so, 1 hour 26 minutes.
