Question 476410: driving at 54 mph, one covers 19 miles in how many sec

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
d=r*t --> t = d/r
t = 19%2F54+=+.35185
But this is in hours so convert to seconds
60 min in hour, 60 sec in minute
60*60 = 3600
3600%2A.35185+=+1266.67
Therefore you cover 19 miles in 1,266.67 seconds
