At 8 A.M., Dylan and his neighbor, Mickey, drove in their cars to a city that was 240 mi. away from their neighborhood. When Dylan reached the city, Mickey had 40 mi. to go. He finally completed the trip 48 minutes later.

Question

a) How long did it take Mickey to drive to the city?

b) What was Dylan’s driving speed in mph?

Answer 1

since Mickey had only gone 5/6 of the way, Dylan's speed was 6/5 of his.

The last 1/6 (40 mi) of the trip took Mickey 48 minutes.

That should get you started.
