Question 663803: If you are going 65 mph, how long would it take to go 1/10th of a mile?
What if you were going 55 mph? Found 2 solutions by solver91311, stanbon:Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
Distance equals rate times time, so time must equal distance divided by rate. Divide 0.1 by 65 and convert from hours to minutes or seconds as you feel appropriate -- I'd say seconds in this case. Do the same for 55 mph.

What if you were going 55 mph?
----
time = distance/rate
----
time = (1/10)/65 = 1/650 hr = 0.001538.. hr. = 5.54 seconds
=========================
time = (1/10)/55 = 1/550 hr = 0.0.001818..hr. = 6.55 seconds
