QuestionA car is traveling at a rate of 39 miles per hour. What is the car's rate in miles per minute? How many miles will the car travel in 15 minutes? Do not round your answers. $\square$

Studdy Solution
Calculate the distance:
$$\left(\frac{39}{60}\right) \times 15 = \frac{39 \times 15}{60} = \frac{585}{60} = \frac{39}{4}$$
The car's rate in miles per minute is:
$$\frac{39}{60} \text{ miles per minute}$$
The distance the car will travel in 15 minutes is:
$$\frac{39}{4} \text{ miles}$$
