Question

question 5 of 8
shelby can drive 165 miles in 3 hours. at this speed, how many miles can she
o 230 miles
o 660 miles
o 220 miles
o 177 miles

Explanation:

Step1: Find the speed

Speed is calculated by distance divided by time. So, speed $v = \frac{165}{3}$ miles per hour.
$v = 55$ miles per hour.

Step2: Assume the time (missing in the question, but likely 4 hours as 55*4=220)

If we assume the time is 4 hours (since 55*4 = 220 which is one of the options), then distance $d = v\times t$.
$d = 55\times4 = 220$ miles.

Answer:

C. 220 miles (assuming the time is 4 hours, as the original question seems to have a typo in the end but the option 220 matches with speed 55 mph and time 4 hours)
