Theo is driving with his mom to Paso Robles. It took Theo 4 hours to drive 228 miles. Lex drove with his dad to San Luis Obispo. Lex drove 186 miles in 3 hours. a. How far does Theo drive in 1 hour? How far does Lex drive in 1 hour? b. Who drove faster? Explain how you know.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The man can drive 112 miles in 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

228 miles divided by 4

4 hours divided by 4 =57

186 divided by 3

3 hour divided by 3=62

Theo drove 114 miles in 2 hours. Lex drove 124 miles in 2 hours

Answer:

A. Theo drove 57 miles and Lex drove 62 miles in 1 hour.

B. Lex drove faster. We know this because in order to figure out how many miles each drove per hour you need to find there individual rate. Which is 228/4 and 186/3. You want to divide using the hours so you generate a response where 1 hour is the only thing left. Thus giving you mph (miles per hour). Lex is drove 5 miles more in an hour than Theo leading us back to who drove faster. Lex did.

Hope this helps!
