Answer:
1.67 hours (rounded to the nearest hundredth)
Step-by-step explanation:
100 miles: 150 *2/3
2.5*2/3=1.67
Answer:
1 2/3 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
Write and solve an equation of ratios, as follows:
Distance Time
150 mi 2.5 hrs
-------------- = ----------------
100 mi x
Cross multiplying, we get (150 mi)x = 250 mi-hrs.
Dividing both sides by 150 mi, we get:
250 mi-hrs
x = ------------------ = 1 2/3 hrs
150 mi
The train could cover 100 miles in 1 2/3 hours.
