What is the solution

Question

You need to calculate the flight time of an upcoming trip. You are flying from LA to Sydney, covering a distance of 7425 miles, the plane flies at an average speed of 550 miles an hour.

Calculate and output the total flight time in hours.

Answer 1

speed = distance / time
that means
time = distance / speed

Apply the formula and then output the result in hours.

Per Bratthammar I typed too fast and mixed it all up. 🤦‍♀️ Thanks for correction! 😊

Answer 2

HI, Lisa !

It can be a bit confusing: time/distance gives pace. Distance/time (km/h) gives speed 🙂. If the pace in life is too high, it’s easy to mix up… 🤓

Answer 3

Hi! where did you have difficulty writing this program?

Answer 4

Well I did first 550x10 then added 550 from there so about 13 hrs

Answer 5

d=7425/550
Print('total flight time in hours =',d)

Answer 6

Solution is
print(7425/550)
