What is an Equivalent fraction?

Given:

It takes to travel 900 miles at 30 miles per hour.

To find:

the rate can you set 1 hour equal to in order to find the time it takes to travel 900 miles at 30 miles per hour.

Since you have miles in the numerator of your rate, you ought miles in the numerator of the equivalent fraction:

[tex]$\frac{30 \mathrm{mi}}{1 \mathrm{~h}}=\frac{900 \mathrm{mi}}{t}$[/tex]

This can be rearranged to

[tex]$\frac{t}{1 \mathrm{~h}}=\frac{900 \mathrm{mi}}{30 \mathrm{mi}}=30$[/tex]

Then, multiplying by 1 h gives the solution

t = 30h

It brings 30 hours to travel 900 miles at 30 miles per hour.

[tex]$\frac{30 \mathrm{mi}}{1 \mathrm{~h}}=\frac{900 \mathrm{mi}}{t}$[/tex]
