Question 912289
Charles is going camping with his family. Their campsite is 5/8 mile away. They walk at a steady speed of 2 1/2 mi/h. How long will it take them to get to their campsite.
-------------
time = distance/rate
-----
time = (5/8)/(5/2) = (5/8)*(2/5) = 2/8 = 1/4 hr = 15 minutes
------------
Cheers,
