Martina drove 638 miles in 11 hours.

At the same rate, how many miles would she drive in 13 hours?

1 answer

To find out how many miles Martina would drive in 13 hours at the same rate, we first need to determine her driving rate in miles per hour.

  1. Calculate her driving rate: \[ \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Total miles}}{\text{Total hours}} = \frac{638 \text{ miles}}{11 \text{ hours}} \approx 58 \text{ miles per hour} \]

  2. Next, we can use this rate to find out how far she would drive in 13 hours: \[ \text{Distance in 13 hours} = \text{Rate} \times \text{Time} = 58 \text{ miles per hour} \times 13 \text{ hours} \]

  3. Now, we calculate the distance: \[ 58 \times 13 = 754 \text{ miles} \]

Therefore, at the same rate, Martina would drive approximately 754 miles in 13 hours.
