Selena's family took a road trip. The first day they traveled 462 miles in 7 hours. They continued at the same rate on the second day and traveled for 4 hours. How far did they travel in all?

First, find the rate of travel (speed). 462 miles in 7 hours comes out to 66 mph.

The first day, the family covers 462 miles.

The second day, the family covers (66 mph) (4 hours) = 264 miles.

Just add 462 miles and 264 miles together to find the total distance traveled.

Hello! 462/7 = 66. Selena’s family drove 66 miles per hour. Then, they drove the same rate again for 4 hours. 66 * 4 = 264. 462 + 264 = 726. Her family drove a total of 726 miles.
