Sofia and Diego drive to work. Sofia drives 72 miles in 1.5 hours. Diego drives 126 km in 2 hour 30 min. Work out the difference between their average speeds in km/h. 1 mile = 1.6 km

26.4 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Sofia and Diego drive to work.

For Sofia

We convert miles to km

Sofia drives 72 miles in 1.5 hours.

1 mile = 1.6 km

72 miles = x

x = 72 × 1.6 km

x = 115.2 km

We find the speed in km/hr

Speed = Distance /Time

= 115.2km/1.5 hours

= 76.8 km/hr

For Diego

Diego drives 126 km in 2 hour 30 min.

Speed = Distance/Time

Time = 2 hour 30 min = 2.5 hours

Speed = 126km/2.5 hours

= 50.4 km/hr

The difference between their average speeds in km/h is calculated as:

76.8 km/hr - 50.4 km/hr

= 26.4 km/hr

answer: 16

step-by-step explanation: first you would add 6+6 which equals 12 then add 2+2 which equals 4. then add 12 + 4 which is 16.

hope this ^_^
