Question 728864: A flight departs from a city A at 11:00 a.m. CST to arrive in city B at 2:30 p.m. MST. If the plane flies at an average rate of 413 1/2 mph, what distance does it travel? (Hint: There is a 1-hour time difference between CST and MST.) Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! CST is 1 hour ahead of Mountain time
when it is 11.00 am CST it is actuall 10AM MST
10 to 2.30 = 4.5 hours
speed = 413.5
distance = speed * time
= 1860.75 miles
