It took 2.5 hours for the bus to travel the distance between two cities at a velocity of 75.0 miles/hr. How many miles lie between the two cities?

The formula for distance is d=v/t so distiance equals velocity devided by time. 75.0miles per hour devided by 2.5 is equal to 30 miles. Now lets check this again. 30=75/2.5 30=30 so the answere is 30 miles apart. Have fun and enjoy!; )

Velocity of the bus = 75 miles/hr

Time taken by the bus to travel the distance between two cities = 2.5 hours

Let us assume the distance between the two cities = x

Then

Velocity = Distance/Time taken

Then Distance = Velocity * Time taken

= 75 * 2.5 miles

= 187.5 miles.

The distance between the two cities is 187.5 miles. I hope this answer is what you were looking for. This process is applicable for similar problems. In future you can always use this method to determine the answer.
