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
