Answer:

x = 6.59 hrs = about 6 hours, 35 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Adam drives at 85 km / h. Let's set up equivalent fractions to see how long if he drives 560 km.

[tex]\frac{85 km}{1 hr} = \frac{560 km}{x hr}[/tex]

Cross-multiply:

85x = 560

Solve for x:

560/85 = x

x = 6.59 hrs = about 6 hours, 35 minutes
