I did 100/3 divided by 2/3 and i multiplied that answer by 1 and got 50. im sorry if im wrong!

Totally didn't copy the other guy

The car would be able to cover 50 miles in 1 hour.

Data;

  • Distance = 100/3 miles
  • time = 2/3 hour
  • rate?

Rate

To solve this question, we just have to find the speed of the car. We can easily use the formula of velocity on this.

[tex]velocity = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

or we can just set and equate the distance to the time taken.

[tex]\frac{100}{3}mi=\frac{2}{3}hr\\ x mi = 1hr\\[/tex]

Cross multiply both side and make x the subject

[tex]\frac{2x}{3}=\frac{100}{3}*1\\2x=100\\ x=50mi[/tex]

From the calculations above, the car will travel 50 miles in 1 hour.
