Question

If a fire truck is traveling 12 mph and must travel 4 miles. how long will it take to reach the fire?

Answer 1

60 mph = 1 mile a minute or 4 minutes

30 mph = 1/2 mile a minute 0r 8 minutes

15 mph = 1/4 mile a minute or 16 minutes

Answer 2

it would take 1 hour to travel 12 miles

divide that by 3

and you get 20 minutes to travel 4 miles

so the answer is 20 minutes

hope this helps!

Answer 3

(4miles) divided by (12miles/hour) = 0.33 hours. if you want your answer in minutes, then (0.33hours) x (60min/hour) = 20 minutes
