Think of the word DISTance and you have the formula D Is S times T
Distance equals Speed x Time from which you can infer that Speed equals Distance divided by Time and Time equals Distance divide by Speed
So in this example How long? means find the Time, and Time = Distance/Speed
which equals 960miles divided by 55mph = 17hours 27minutes 16.36363636.....seconds
What about stopping for coffee or a rest?
1 hour 16 minutes.
At 55mph about 10 hours
36 minutes.
33mins
5 hr 55 min.
Two hours 3 minutes.
10 hours 21 minutes.
22 minutes 54.5 seconds.
450/55=8.181818181818182 hours.
29 hours 5.5 minutes.
at what speed? at 55 mph it will take 3.509 hours take the distance and divide by the speed: 193.0/55mph=3.509 d/s=t
If you are driving 700 miles at a constant 55 mph, it will take 12.72 hours. To figure out the time it takes to travel, you divide the distance into the speed.
