School questions:
a tornado traveled 260 miles in 4 hours. if the average rate at which the tornado is moving slows by 20%, how many miles will the tornado travel in the next 2 hours? (the world record 4 longest tornado is 3.5 hrs btw)
i know the answer its 104 just want to post this

So you would take 260 miles and divide by 4 hours to get 65 mph. And since the rate slows by 20%, you would subtract 13 from 65 giving you 52. So the new speed of the tornado is 52 mph. And take that and multiply it by 2 hours to get 104 miles. The correct answer is 104

actually your concept is wrong

step-by-step explanation:

150% of x =300

150x=300×100

x=(300×100)÷150

x=200

hello! just here for points! though i wish i knew!
