Solution

Step 1: Determine the time it takes to travel.

The time it takes to travel can be calculated using the formula: Time = Distance / Speed.

Step 2: Apply the values to the formula.

In this case, the distance is 50 miles and the speed is 40 miles per hour. So, Time = 50 miles / 40 miles per hour = 1.25 hours.

Step 3: Convert the decimal hours to minutes.

To convert the decimal hours to minutes, multiply the decimal part by 60 (since 1 hour = 60 minutes). So, 0.25 hours = 0.25 * 60 = 15 minutes.

Step 4: Add the travel time to the departure time.

Savio leaves his home at 07:30. Adding 1 hour and 15 minutes to this time, we get 08:45.

So, if Savio is correct about his average speed, he will arrive at work at
