you drive home from school
you drive at a steady 65 miles per hour for 135 miles

it begins to rain, so you slow down to 55 mph

the time it takes to get home is 3 hours and 20 minutes

how far is ur school from home?

135/65 = x hours

3 hr. 20 min. - x hours = y

55 = z/y

z + 135 = answer?

did that in 30 seconds
