You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Use the appropriate formula:
Distance= rate*time. You want time,so divide both sides by rate
Distance/rate= rate*time/rate On the right, rate multiplying and rate dividing cancel each other and what you have left is:
Distance/rate= time Oh, and rate is another name for speed. Plug in your numbers:
678/51= time, use your calculator to do the division, you don't need me for that.
