Answer:
A. Daniel
B. 2.73 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
A. Determination of who travelled further.
For Wendy:
Time = 3.9 hours
Average speed = 68.3 miles
Total distance travelled =?
Average speed = Total distance / time
68.3 = Total distance / 3.9
Cross multiply
Total distance = 68.3 × 3.9
Total distance = 266.37 miles
For Daniel:
Time = 4.5 hours
Average speed = 59.8 miles
Total distance travelled =?
Average speed = Total distance / time
59.8 = Total distance / 4.5
Cross multiply
Total distance = 59.8 × 4.5
Total distance = 269.1 miles
SUMMARY:
Name >>>>>>>>>> Distance travelled
Wendy >>>>>>>>> 266.37 miles
Daniel >>>>>>>>> 269.1 miles
From the above illustration, we can see that Daniel travelled farther than Wendy.
B. Determination of how much farther Daniel travelled than Wendy.
Name >>>>>>>>>> Distance travelled
Wendy >>>>>>>>> 266.37 miles
Daniel >>>>>>>>> 269.1 miles
Difference = Daniel – Wendy
Difference = 269.1 – 266.37
Difference = 2.73 miles
Thus, Daniel travelled 2.73 miles farther than Wendy.
