To find out how far the car will travel in 5 hours at the same speed, we first need to determine its speed.
The speed of the car can be calculated using the formula:
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \]
In this case:
\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{60 \text{ miles}}{2 \text{ hours}} = 30 \text{ miles per hour} \]
Now, to find out how far the car will travel in 5 hours, we can use the same formula for distance:
\[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \]
So, we calculate the distance for 5 hours:
\[ \text{Distance} = 30 \text{ miles per hour} \times 5 \text{ hours} = 150 \text{ miles} \]
Therefore, the car will travel 150 miles in 5 hours at the same speed.
