Time is distance divided by rate. There are two ways to do this problem. You can convert 8 miles to kilometers and then divide by 60 km/hr, or you can divide 8 by the number of miles per hour represented by 60 km/hr. Since all given measurements are in whole numbers, you cannot report your answer to greater precision than the nearest whole minute. Hint: 1/10 of an hour is 6 minutes.
