Question

Ted drove to his grandparents' house for a holiday weekend. The total distance (one-way) was 482 miles and it took him 6 hours. How fast was Ted driving?

Answer 1

Ted drove at `80.33mph` (around `80mph`).

Explanation:

To find Ted's speed, we need to determine the number of miles per hour (`mph`) that he drove.

Since he drove `482` miles in `6` hours, the number of miles (`x`) he drove in one hour can be expressed by the equation:

`x=482/6`

`x=80.33`
