Madison was driving at 40 mph and went 80 miles. How long did it take Madison?
Answer (3)
2 hours! This is because she's driving 40 mph and has to drive 80 miles so 80/40= 2
v = 40 m p h s = 80 mi l es t = ? − − − − − − − − − − − − − − v = t s → v t = s → t = v s − − − − − − − − − − − − − − t = 40 m p h 80 mi l es = 2 h ← A n s w er
Madison took 2 hours to drive 80 miles at a speed of 40 mph. We used the formula for time, which is distance divided by speed, to arrive at this conclusion. This calculation shows how speed and distance relate to travel time.
