Answer:
5.24 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
I like to set these up as ratios.
279 miles/4.5 hours = 325 miles/ x hours
Then cross multiply
279x = 4.5 x 325
279x = 1462.5
divide both sides by 279
x = 5.24 hours
You can also solve 279 miles/4.5 hours to get the miles per hour driven, then divide 325 by that number:
279/4.5 = 62mph
325/62 = 5.24
