Caroline drove 350 miles to the beach the trip took her 5 1/4 hours what was her average speed in miles per hour?

Use the formula d = rt to figure this out, where d is distance, r is the rate of travel, and t is the total amount of time taken to travel the distance, d.

So the equation would be 350 = 5.15r (I converted 5 1/4 to a decimal to make it easier.) Now we simply need to solve for the variable r to get the final answer.

Once the equation is solved for r, the final answer is ABOUT 68 mph. So, Caroline drove at an average speed of 68 miles per hour.

Cis the correct answer i just took the test on edgenuity
