Verified Answer :
First find out how many miles per hour. 310/5= 62. Divide that number by 60 (60 minutes in an hour). 62/60= 1.033333. Terry drives 1.033333 miles per minute. Multiply 1.033333 times 403 to see how many minutes he drove. 1.033333*403=416.433333. It took Terry 416 minutes or 6 hours and 56 minutes. :)
Answer:
The time taken to drive 403 miles at the same speed is 6.5 hours.
Explanation:
Given : Terry drove 310 miles in 5 hours at a constant speed.
To find : How long would it take him to drive 403 miles at the same speed?
Solution :
The formula of speed is given by,
\(\text{Speed}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}\)
Distance is 310 miles.
Time is 5 hours.
\(\text{Speed}=\frac{310}{5}\)
\(\text{Speed}=62\ miles/hr\)
As he drive 403 miles at the same speed.
So, Distance = 403 miles and Speed is 62 miles per hour.
The required time taken is
\(\text{Time}=\frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}\)
\(\text{Time}=\frac{403}{62}\)
\(\text{Time}=6.5\)
Therefore, the time taken to drive 403 miles at the same speed is 6.5 hours.
