Answer:
165 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been Carter and his family are driving from o find the total Atlanta to Raleigh. They drive for 2 hours and 45 minutes at an average speed of 60 miles per hour.
To solve our given problem we will use Distance formula.
\(\text{Distance}=\text{Speed*Time}\)
Let us convert 45 minutes to hours by dividing 45 by 60.
\(\text{45 minutes}=\frac{45}{60}\text{ hour}\)
\(\text{45 minutes}=0.75\text{ hour}\)
Upon substituting our given values in distance formula we will get,
\(\text{Distance covered by Carter family}=2.75\text{ hours}\times \frac{\text{60 miles}}{\text{Hour}}\)
\(\text{Distance covered by Carter family}=2.75\times\text{60 miles}\)
\(\text{Distance covered by Carter family}=\text{165 miles}\)
Therefore, the Carter family traveled 165 miles in 2 hours and 45 minutes.
