The boat travels at 35 miles per hour.

The spot is 27 miles away.

A) Multiply the speed of the boat by the travel time:

35 x 2/3 = 70/3 = 23 1/3 miles.

The boat did not travel far enough.

B) Divide the distance by the speed:

27 miles / 35 miles per hour = 0.77 hours = (0.77*60 = 46.29 minutes).
