How To Solve For Ship's Steaming Time

 A vessel sailed on a total distance of 120 miles for 10 knots. How many hours did she do for the trip? 

Given:

           Distance = 120 miles

                Speed = 10 knots

What is asked? 

           Solve for the ship's steaming time

Solution:

The formula for solving ship's steaming time is to divide distance by the speed.

Time = Distance ÷ Speed 

          = 120 miles ÷ 10 miles/hour

Now we can can eliminate miles 

          = 120 miles ÷ 10 miles/hour

          = 120 ÷ 10 hours

          = 12 hours is the ship's steaming time
