EXPLANATION
IQ8. If a car travels 1.5 miles per minute for half an hour, how far will it have traveled?
a) 0.75 miles
b) 30 miles
c) 45 miles
d) 60 miles
ANSWER: c) 45 miles
EXPLANATION:
To find the distance traveled by the car, we need to multiply the speed (1.5 miles per minute) by the time traveled (half an hour).
Given that there are 60 minutes in an hour, half an hour is equal to 30 minutes.
Distance = Speed × Time
Distance = 1.5 miles/minute × 30 minutes
Calculating this expression:
Distance = 45 miles
Therefore, the car will have traveled a distance of 45 miles.
