Answer:
i. The boat will travel 18.5 miles in one hour
ii. The boat will travel 9.25 miles in half an hour
iii. The boat will travel 27.75 miles in one and a half hours
Explanation:
We are given that the boat travel 37 miles in 2 hours
To get the miles traveled, we can simply use cross multiplication
i. Miles traveled by the boat in one hour:
37 miles .....................> 2 hours
x miles ........................> 1 hour
[tex]x = \frac{37*1}{2}=18.5[/tex] miles
ii. Miles traveled in half an hour:
37 miles .....................> 2 hours
x miles ........................> 0.5 hour
[tex]x = \frac{37*0.5}{2}=9.25[/tex] miles
iii. Miles traveled in an hour and a half:
37 miles .....................> 2 hours
x miles ........................> 1.5 hour
[tex]x = \frac{37*1.5}{2}=27.75[/tex] miles
Hope this helps :)
