Math need help with answer !
Need your help to find the answer for:
An aircraft travels 910 miles in 2hr 30 minutes, find the average speed
Regards

Re: Math need help with answer !
Suggestion from here is:
2 1/2 hours = 5 lots of half an hour so
910 / 5 = 182 miles per half hour
182 X 2 = 364 miles per hour
Or
910/5 =182 x 2 = 364
( sorry don't have a division sign on my keyboard)

Thanks a lot dear doodles
Re: Math need help with answer !
Average speed = total distance/total time = 910/2.5
Dividing by 2.5 is a bit tricky so you could double numerator and denominator = 1820/5 = 364 mph
