I don't understand how I am suposse to solve this question using only 1 given
a) a deep sea fishing boat received an echo from a school of fish 0.483 s after transmission. How far away were the fish?
if anyone can help, it'll be appreciated
 
The sound (SONAR signal) must travel from boat to fish and back. How fast does sound travel in water?
