Question 516464: How long would it take a car to travel a distance of 1.5 miles at the rate of 220 miles per hour?
d = r * t so we know the distance is 1.5 miles and the rate is 220 mph:
1.5 = 220t
We need to isolate t so we divide each side of the equation by 220:
1.5/220 = t
Simplify further:
t = 0.0068
