Question 1208154
.


The distance is the average rate multiplied by the time.


The average rate is 60 miles per hour; the time is  30  minutes or  1/2  of an hour.


The product  " the average rate by the time "  is   60 * 1/2 = 30.


Hence, &nbsp;the traveled distance is &nbsp;30 miles.   &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<U>ANSWER</U>



&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Another way to solve.



The distance is the average rate multiplied by the time.


The average rate is 60 &nbsp;miles per hour, &nbsp;or &nbsp;1 mile per minute; 
the time is &nbsp;30 minutes.


The product &nbsp;" the average rate by the time " &nbsp;is &nbsp;1 * 30 = 30.


Hence, &nbsp;the traveled distance is &nbsp;30 miles.  &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<U>the same ANSWER</U>



&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Solved in two ways, for your better understanding.



So, now you have a standard mantra to solve million other similar problems.



&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;When solving, &nbsp;you should take care that the rate 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;and the time are in consistent units.
