A student wrote four statements during math class. Which statement contains an error? A If Josh traveled 198 miles at an average speed of 33 miles per hour, he was traveling for exactly 6 hours.
B If Rhonda traveled 273 miles at an average speed of 39 miles per hour, she was traveling for exactly 7 hours.
C If Will traveled 376 miles at an average speed of 47 miles per hour, he was traveling for exactly 8 hours.
D If Yolanda traveled 487 miles at an average speed of 53 miles per hour, she was traveling for exactly 9 hours.

Respuesta :

The Answer is D

198 / 33 = 6
273 / 39 = 7
376 / 47 = 8
487 / 53 = 9.188679

I hope this helps :)

The statement that contains an error is D. Yolanda traveled 487 miles at an average speed of 53 miles per hour, she was traveling for exactly 9 hours.

For option A, If Josh traveled 198 miles at an average speed of 33 miles per hour, the time taken will be:

= 198/33

= 6 hours.

For option B, if Rhonda traveled 273 miles at an average speed of 39 miles per hour, then the time taken is 273/39 = 7 hours

For option C, Will traveled 376 miles at an average speed of 47 miles per hour, the time taken is 376/47 = 8 hours

For option D, if Yolanda traveled 487 miles at an average speed of 53 miles per hour, the time taken will be:

= 487/53

= 9.19 hours.

In conclusion, based on the calculations, the correct option is D.
