So what you would do is multiply the speed by the time to find the distance.
(652)+(451)= the distance 
175miles

The speed is the distance covered by an object at a particular time. The total distance that is covered by Mishika on her road trip is 175 miles.

What is speed?

The speed is the distance covered by an object at a particular time. Therefore, it is the ratio of distance and time.

\(\rm{Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}\)

Distance on highway = speed × time = (65×2) miles

Distance on Side Road = speed × time = (45×1) miles

The total distance = Distance on highway + Distance on Side road

                              = (65 ×2) + (45 × 1)

                              = 175 miles

Hence, the total distance that is covered by Mishika on her road trip is 175 miles.
