On a recent road trip, it took John 3.53.5 h to drive from a suburb of Phoenix to a small town outside of Yuma. According to his dashboard computer, he averaged 8585 mph on the drive. John's friend in Yuma is European, and he asked for the distance that John drove in kilometers. How far did John drive in kilometers?

Respuesta :

Answer:

He drove approximately 478.78 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that,

Distance = Speed × time,

Given,

Time taken by john in driving = 3.5 hours,

His average speed = 85 mph,

So, the total distance he drove = 3.5 × 85 = 297.5 miles,

Since, 1 miles = 1.60934 km,

Thus, the total distance he drove = 1.60934 × 297.5 = 478.77865 km ≈ 478.78 km
