The distance between Ali's house and 1 point
college is exactly 135 miles. If she
drove 2/3 of the distance in 135
minutes. What was her average speed
in miles per hour?


Answer :

First we have to figure out how long it would take for the full voyage and that would be 135 + (135 x 1/3) and the answer to that would be 135 + 45 = 180 and that means that 180 is the total minutes it would take to travel the whole trip, now we have to calculate average speed which would be 135(distance)/180(time) which would end up being 135 miles/ 3 hours, now we divide the entire equation by 3 which would be 45/1
CONCLUSION ——————————
Ali would be driving 45 miles per hour

Ali's average speed was 40 miles per hour.
