Question #bf053

Answer 1

146.7 Miles

Explanation:

Let's use the variable `x` as the ability of distance the racecar can go in 45 minutes.

We can use a ratio here: 48.9 mi: 15 min:: `x`: 45 min

So `45/15=3`. Which means we have to multiply 48.9 miles by 3, which will get our `x` variable an actual number, and will also solve the problem.

`48.9mi*3=146.7mi`

ANSWER: 146.7 Miles
