Ty drove 195 miles in 3 hours. What was his rate of miles per hour?

A. 65 miles per hour
B. 64 miles per hour
C. 56 miles per hour
D. 53 miles per hour



Answer :

To determine Ty's rate of miles per hour, you can use the formula for speed, which is:

[tex]\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} \][/tex]

Here, we know that Ty drove a distance of 195 miles in a time of 3 hours. Plugging these values into the formula, we get:

[tex]\[ \text{Speed} = \frac{195 \text{ miles}}{3 \text{ hours}} \][/tex]

Dividing 195 miles by 3 hours, we calculate:

[tex]\[ \text{Speed} = 65 \text{ miles per hour} \][/tex]

Therefore, Ty's rate of driving is 65 miles per hour.

The correct answer is:
A. 65 miles per hour
