You can put this solution on YOUR website!
use the formula distance=rate x time
the distance in this problem is 135 miles
the rate is 60 mph
the time is what we are looking for
let T=time
135=60T
divide both sides by 60
T=2.25 hours
.25 of an hour is 15 mins
you can get this by multiplying .25 x 60
answer: 2 hours and 15 mins
