As delivery truck drove an average of 42 mph it took two hours and 15 minutes to travel between two towns what is the distance between the two towns

The distance is 10.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically; we want to calculate the distance between the two towns in the question

Distance = speed * time

15 minutes to hours is 15/60 = 1/4 hours

So the distance would be;

Distance = 42 mph * 1/4 = 10.5 miles

step-by-step explanation:

there are 36 inches in a yard

25 : 36 = 0.69 yards (you can round to 0.70)

it is 10.6 according to my calculations
