It is 185 miles from Binghamton to New York City. If a bus takes 2 hou

Average speed = \(\frac{TotalDistance}{TotalTime}\)

AND (just rearranging)

Total time = \(\frac{TotalDistance}{Average\\
Speed}\)

In miles per hour, then, the total time it would take to average 50 miles per hour:

\(\frac{185}{50}\) = 3.7 hours

The bus has already traveled for 2 hours. Subtract that, and do not worry about the rate for those 2 hours. Rate for both legs has been accounted for in the "time taken" equation.

(3.7 - 2) = 1.7 hours still left to travel

Multiply any fraction of an hour by 60 to get minutes.

Minutes still remaining to travel the last leg (100 miles) of the trip:

1.7 hrs * 60 = 102 minutes, OR

\(1\frac{7}{10} = \frac{17}{10}hrs * \frac{60min}{1hr} = (17 * 6)mins\) =

102 minutes
