A certain hurricane travels at 20.88 kilometers per hour. The distance from Cuba to Key West is 145 kilometers.

Write and solve a multiplication equation to find about how long it would take the hurricane to travel from Cuba to Key West.

Answer (3)

v = 20.88 km / h ( velocity ) d = 145 km ( distance ) Velocity formula: v = d / t t = d / v ( time ) t = 145 km : 20.88 km/h t = 6.94444 h We have to multiply 0.94444 by 60 minutes. 0.94444 · 60 = 56.67 ≈ 56 minutes 40 seconds Answer: It would take 6 hours 56 minutes and 40 seconds .

To find out how long it takes the hurricane to travel from Cuba to Key West, divide the distance (145 km) by the hurricane's speed (20.88 km/h), which results in approximately 6.95 hours. Basically, it would take about 7 hours for the hurricane to complete the journey. ;
