30 mins is half of an hour.... and its how many MILES PER HOUR.... so times the 28 miles in the half hour... times 2 to make it a full hour...

"Miles per hour" means Miles divided by hours. (Per always means divide)

Therefore 28 miles / 0.5 hours = 56 mph

56

two ways u can do this, one you can recognize that the car traveled 28miles/half an hour so just double the distance traveled/

however if it wasnt so convenient

28 miles/ 30minutes * 60 minutes/1hr = 56 miles/hr

since you have to figure out hours, you just double 30 minutes since there are 60 minutes in an hour. you have to do the same thing for your miles so it's gonna be 56 miles/hour.
