Last Saturday, Mr. Stone drove 320 miles in 5 minutes. What is the rate of miles per hour

Answer 1

To calculate the rate in miles per hour, we need to convert the time from minutes to hours.

There are 60 minutes in one hour, so to convert 5 minutes to hours, we divide by 60.

5 minutes / 60 minutes = 0.0833 hours

Now we can calculate the rate of miles per hour by dividing the distance of 320 miles by the time of 0.0833 hours:

320 miles / 0.0833 hours = 3840 miles per hour

Therefore, the rate of miles per hour is 3840 miles per hour.
