Susie leaves to go shopping driving 45 miles per hour toward the Happy Shopper Grocery Store. Susie is originally 20 miles due west of the store. Sammie leaves for the Happy Shopper Grocery
Store at the same time driving 50 miles per hour on the same road but she is 25 miles due East
Who reaches the store first? By how much time (in hours)? Round to the nearest hundredth if
needed.

Susie reaches the store first being ahead by 0.06 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

20 miles going 45 miles/hour.

20 miles / (45 miles / hour) = 20 miles hours / 45 miles =

= 20 hours / 45 = 4/9 hours = 0.44 hours

25 miles going 50 miles/hour.

25 miles / (50 miles / hour) = 25 miles hours / 50 miles =

= 25 hours / 50 = 1/2 hours = 0.5 hours

So Susie needs less time (= arrives first).

the difference is 0.5 - 0.44 = 0.50-0.44 = 0.06 hours

as additional practice :

0.06 hours is 60 × 0.06 minutes.

60 × 0.06 = 60 × 6 / 100 = 360 / 100 = 3.6 minutes.
