What is the rate if a person travels 300 miles in 5 hours?

50 miles per hour
60 miles per hour
75 miles per hour
80 miles per hour

The correct answer is: 50 miles per hour

To determine the rate at which a person is traveling, you can use the formula for speed, which is distance divided by time. In this case, the distance is 300 miles, and the time taken is 5 hours. The calculation is as follows: Rate = Distance ÷ Time Rate = 300 miles ÷ 5 hours Rate = 60 miles per hour This calculation shows that the correct answer reflects the actual speed of travel, which is 60 miles per hour. This understanding of the relationship between distance, time, and speed is key in solving similar problems in the future.
