1/3 * 560 = 186.67 miles
186.67 / 60 = 3.11 or about three hours
186.67 / 60 = 3.11 or about three hours
Since Balmorhea is 1/3 of the way from El Paso to San Antonio, we can find the total distance from El Paso to Balmorhea by multiplying the full distance by 1/3:
Distance from El Paso to Balmorhea = (1/3) * 560 miles = 560/3 miles
Now, we can calculate the time it takes for the bus to travel this distance by using the formula:
Time = Distance / Speed
Time = (560/3 miles) / 60 miles per hour
Simplifying this expression, we get:
Time = (560/3) / 60 = (560/3) * (1/60) = 560 / (3*60)
Now, we can calculate the final answer:
Time = 560 / (3*60) = 560 / 180 ≈ 3.11 hours
Therefore, it takes the bus approximately 3.11 hours to get to Balmorhea.
