Question 219143: if you travelled 105 miles in 1 hr 45 minutes what is your average speed

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
45 minutes = 0.75 hours ---> 1 hr 45 minutes = 1 hour + 0.75 hours = 1.75 hours
So 1 hr 45 minutes = 1.75 hours


d=rt

105=r(1.75)

105/1.75=r

r=60 <----Answer

Average speed: 60 mph
