You are traveling at 75 miles per hour on a straight stretch of highway in nevada. it is noon now. when will you arrive at the next town 120 miles away? a) 2: 00 pm b) 1: 36 pm c) 12: 36 pm d) 2: 36 pm.

It's noon now, which means that the current time is 12.00

75 x = 120  >> x is the amount of hours needed to get into 120 miles

x = 120 /75
   =  1.6 hours

1.6 hours = 1 hour 36 minutes

12.00 + 1 hour 36 minutes = B. 1:36 PM

hope this helps
