On a map with a scale of 1 inch= 100 miles, the distance between two cities is 7.55 inches. If a car travels 55 miles per hour, about how long will it take to get from one city to another.

13.73 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

On a map with a scale of

1 inch= 100 miles

the distance between two cities is 7.55 inches.

We convert from inches to miles

1 inch = 100 miles

7.55 inches = x

x = 7.55 × 100 miles

x = 755 miles

The distance between the two cities = 755 miles

If a car travels 55 miles per hour, about how long will it take to get from one city to another?

We are to calculate the Time

Speed = Distance /Time

Time = Distance/Speed

Hence, the time is calculated as:

755 miles/55 miles per hour

= 13.727272727 hours

≈ 13.73 hours

this is not the answer this is just a question. is this middle school math?
