Answered by MathMate
Speed * time = distance
Time = distance / speed

Normal time = 125 mi/65 mph
Time at 80 mph = 125 mi/85 mph

The difference of the two times is the time saved (in hours)
Answered by Diana
((150/85)-(150/65) ) x 60

multiply by 60 bc they ask for MINUTES not hrs.

The answer is positive btw.
