On a recent road trip, it took john 3.53.5 h to drive from a suburb of phoenix to a small town outside of yuma. according to his dashboard computer, he averaged 8585 mph on the drive. john's friend in yuma is european, and he asked for the distance that john drove in kilometers. how far did john drive in kilometers?

He drove approximately 478.78 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Distance = Speed × time,

Given,

Time taken by john in driving = 3.5 hours,

His average speed = 85 mph,

So, the total distance he drove = 3.5 × 85 = 297.5 miles,

Since, 1 miles = 1.60934 km,

Thus, the total distance he drove = 1.60934 × 297.5 = 478.77865 km ≈ 478.78 km

Right now it is noon you are traveling 75 miles per hour meaning you'll move 75 miles... every hour. so you're 120 miles away so now we need to figure out the time to do this we already know 1 hour is 75 miles so now you can subtract one hour 120-75= 45 so 75 per hour, what would 45 be? so we can set up a fraction to figure out how long it takes to travel one minute so 60/75(the 60 is for minutes in an hour). which is .8 of a second to travel one mile so now you can multiply to check your work. .8*75=60 mins so now multiply.8*45(miles left)=36 so you'd get there at 1:36 it would take an hour and 36 mins to get to your destination going 75mph
