A school bus traveled for 42 minutes at a speed of 50 mph. What is the distance the bus traveled in miles? Let's be accurate as possible.
1 hour = 60 minutes. We convert the time to hours, so 42 minutes = 42 / 60 hours = 7 / 10 hours. So in 42 minutes, the distance the bus traveled in miles is 50 * (7 / 10) = 35 miles.
The answer: 35.
