An airplane flies a distance of 650km at an average speed of 300 km/h. How much time did the flight take?



Answer :

To solve this, you can set up a proportion and cross multiply. 

[tex] \frac{650}{x}= \frac{300}{1} \\ \\ 650*1=300*x \\ \\ 650=300x \\ \\ 2.17=x[/tex]

2.17 hours
Distance x speed = time
300 x 650
=195000
Checking
Distance divide time = speed
195000 divide 600
=300
