Distance=rate(time) help please!!!!!!!!!!!?

Question

For vacation tom drove to a beach that was 300 miles away from his home. He made a reststop when he was two thirds of the way there.

It took him 4 hours to get to a reststop. In miles per hour what was the average speed that he drove for the first hours of the trip?

Thank you!!

Answer 1

2/3 of trip is 200 miles.

200=rate (4)

200 divided by 4 = rate (speed)

50mph = speed for first part of trip

the remaining 100 miles is at 25mph

100 divided by 25 = 4 hours

the total trip took him 8 hours plus the time he was at the rest stop

Answer 2

50 mph

Answer 3

Speed = distance/time

Total distance = 300 miles

time to reststop = 4 hours

distance to reststop = 300 miles * 2/3 = 200 miles

speed to reststop = 200 miles / 4 hours = 50 miles per hour

time to beach

speed restriction = 25 miles per hour

distance remaining = 300 miles - 200 miles = 100 miles

time remaining = 100 miles / 25 miles per hour = 4 hours

total time = 8 hours

average speed = total distance / total time

average speed = 300 miles / 8 hours = 37.5 miles per hour

Answer 4

it would take him another 4hrs since 4*25 = 100, and 100 + 200 = the total 300

Answer 5

50 mph

because it was 200 miles to the rest stop and it took 4 hours so 200 divided by 4 is 50.
