To solve the problem, we use the distance formula \( d = rt \).
Given:
- Rate (r) = 125 miles per hour
- Time (t) = 4 hours
Now, we can calculate the distance (d):
\[
d = (125)(4) = 500 \text{ mi}
\]
So, we fill in the blanks as follows:
d = (125)(4)
= **500** mi
We multiplied miles per hour by hours, so hours cancel, and we are left with miles.
mi/hr x hr = mi
The distance was 500 **miles**.
Distance = **d**/d=rt time
