If a car has traveled 16 miles in 30 minutes, how many miles per hour did they go?

 

 

Hi Liz,

The answer is in the units. You ask how many miles per hour which we often write  miles/hour, that is miles divided by hours.

  • How many miles did the car go?
  • How many hours did it take?
  • Calculate  miles/hours
