| Question 573131:  A plane trip took 6 hours at a speed of 360 mph. How far did the plane go?

      (Show Source): 
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It may help to spell out mph as miles per hour.  This means miles / hour.
 
 We also know the plane took 6 hours.
 
 If we multiply hours times miles / hour (do it on paper and you'll see easier), the hours cancel out and you're left with miles.
 
 So, 360mph x 6hours = X miles
 2160 miles
