Sharon drove 188.3 miles to see a softball game. if she was driving for 3 1/2 hours, what was her average rate of speed?

The average rate of speed = 53.8 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Sharon drove 188.3 miles.

She was driving for 3 1/2 hours = 7/2 = 3.5hours

To find the average speed simply divide the miles she drove by driving hours:

188.3/3.5

53.8 mph.

Therefore the average rate of speed = 53.8 mph

the ratio of white tiles to blue tiles is 48: 16. the ratio in it's simplest form is 3: 1.

step-by-step explanation:

ratio: take the first number and add a colon next to it, then add the second number after that. make sure the ratio order matches up with the written problem!

simplest form: we can simplify the ratio 48 : 16 by dividing both terms by the greatest common factor (gcf).

the gcf of 48 and 16 is 16.

divide both terms by 16:

48 ÷ 16 = 3

16 ÷ 16 = 1

reducing to simplest form:

48 : 16 = 3 : 1
