Question 716925: During a trip to the lands of central Australia Michael find himself lost. The last house he passed is 69 kilometer behind him. If he turns around and drive at a speed of 78 kilometers per hour, how long will it take him to get to that house? Answer by jndarrell(58) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! D=RT Time is x
69=78(x)
divide both sides by 78 to get x alone
x=0.88
60min*0.88= 52.8minutes
