Answer: 9 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Tameron is driving 540 miles to college.
i.e. Total distance = 540 miles.
Average speed = 45 miles per hour
[tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of the total distance = [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}\times540=405\text{ miles}[/tex]
Formula : [tex]\text{Time }=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}}[/tex]
Then, the the time taken to cover [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of the total distance
[tex]=\dfrac{405\text{ miles}}{45\text{ miles per hour}}\\\\=9\text{ hours}[/tex]
Hence, it will take 9 hours to get 3/4 of the way there.
