Help pls I don’t know I’m new pls guide me

Question

You need to plan a road trip. You are traveling at an average speed of 40 miles an hour.
Given a distance in miles as input (the code to take input is already present), output to the console the time it will take you to cover it in minutes.

Sample Input:
150

Sample Output:
225

function main() {
var distance = parseInt(readLine(), 10);
//your code goes here

}

How pls

Well, you know speed = distance / time right?
So time = distance / speed

For their example, distance was 150 miles and speed was 40 miles pet hour right?
So time = distance / speed = 150 / 40 which would give us 3.75

But this answer is in terms of hours (spees is distance / time = miles / hours ) and they want their answer in minutes

So if 1 hour = 60 minutes
and 2 hours = 60 minitues * 2
Then 3.75 hours would be => 60 mins * 3.75 = 225 minutes !

So could you try coding this up but with variables now? Get back to me if you can't or can! ^_^

Answer 2

show your attempt first

Answer 3

Yes i know that but i dont know how to write it

Answer 4

function main() {
var distance = parseInt(readLine(), 10);
//your code goes here
var x = ( 150 / 40)
var y = (60)
docoment.write ( x * y)
}

Hehe i only started learning
Pls teach me

Answer 5

Oh, well ok, so how about this?

var averageSpeed =40;
var distance = 100; // Can set it to be the input from the tests

var timeInHours = distance / averageSpeed;
var timeInMinutes = timeInHours * 60;
console.log(timeInMinutes);

I haven't checked it yet, but this should work if there are no typos!

Answer 6

It doesnt work

Answer 7

No what im going to go bqck from the start try to learn it all agian
