Speed = \(\frac{distance}{time}\)

240 = \(\frac{1440}{time}\)

Rearrange;

time = \(\frac{1440}{240}\)

time = 6 hours

speed times time=distance
st=d
we want ot find time so isolate t
st=d
divide both sides by s
t=d/s

distance=1440
speed=240
t=1440/240=6
the times was 6 hours since mph his miles per HOUR

6 housr
