can you tell me if i did this right...so i have this problem I am doing where i have to travel 32miles in than 45mins. what's the slowest i can drive in order to be at 32miles in 45 mins... so i divided my 45minutes by 60minutes to determine the hour value...which is
.75...and then simply divided 32miles by .75 and came up with 43 MPH...did i do this wrong?
