It gives you the total amount of miles traveled: 243 mi. In order to find out how many miles she traveled on the last day, you need to subtract the milage from the other two days:
243 - 67 - 92 = 84 mi.
Lydia traveled 84 mi on the last day.
In she rode for 7 hrs then that means she covered 84 mi during that time. In order to find mph (miles / hour) you just have to divide 84 by 7:
84/7 = 12 mph
She averaged a speed of 12 mph.
243 - 67 - 92 = 84 mi.
Lydia traveled 84 mi on the last day.
In she rode for 7 hrs then that means she covered 84 mi during that time. In order to find mph (miles / hour) you just have to divide 84 by 7:
