Q. Lindsey has been waiting all summer for her family's annual road trip. This year, they're headed to Yellowstone National Park. Lindsey just saw a sign that said the park is

10

miles away, so the drive is almost over. If Lindsey's father drives

50

miles per hour, how many more minutes will it take to reach the park?

\newline

Write your answer as a whole number, decimal, or simplified fraction. Do not round.

\newline

____ minutes

Identify Given Information: Identify the given information and what needs to be calculated. $\newline$ Lindsey's father drives at a speed of $50$ miles per hour, and the park is $10$ miles away. We need to calculate the time it will take to cover $10$ miles at a speed of $50$ miles per hour.
Calculate Time in Hours: Calculate the time in hours it would take to travel $10$ miles at a speed of $50$ miles per hour. $\newline$ Time (in hours) = Distance / Speed $\newline$ Time = $10$ miles / $50$ miles per hour
Perform Division: Perform the division to find the time in hours. $\newline$ Time = $\frac{10}{50}$ $\newline$ Time = $\frac{1}{5}$ hours
Convert Time to Minutes: Convert the time from hours to minutes, knowing that $1$ hour equals $60$ minutes. $\newline$ Time (in minutes) = Time (in hours) $\times 60$ minutes per hour $\newline$ Time (in minutes) = $(1/5) \times 60$
Perform Multiplication: Perform the multiplication to find the time in minutes. $\newline$ Time (in minutes) = $\frac{1}{5} \times 60$ $\newline$ Time (in minutes) = $12$
