#0.43 " hours"#

Explanation:

#(15 cancel"miles")/(35 cancel"miles"/"hour") = (cancel5*3)/(cancel5*7) " hours" = 3/7 " hours"= 0.43 " hours"#

#0.43# hours or approximately #26# minutes.

Explanation:

We use the distance-time equation, which states that,

#t=d/s#

  • #d# is the total distance travelled

  • #s# is the speed

And so, we got:

#t=(15color(red)cancelcolor(black)"miles")/(35color(red)cancelcolor(black)"miles""/h")#

#~~0.43 \ "h"#
