A car is traveling at a rate of 120 kilometers per hour. what is the car's rate in miles per hour? how many miles will the car travel in 5 hours? in your computations, assume that 1 mile is equal to 1.6 kilometers.
speed = 120 km per hour 1 mile = 1.6 km speed = 120 km per hr divide 120 with 1.6 to get in miles=120/1.6 = 75 miles per hour speed = 75 miles per hour So, in 1 hr, it can travel 75 miles the distance traveled by car in 5 hours = 75*5=375 miles Result : Speed = 75 miles per hour , distance = 375 miles
