5 hours 45 minutes
Distance = Rate x Time
368 = 64t
t = 368/64
t = 5 48/64
t = 5 6/8
t = 5 3/4
As a fraction the time is 5 3/4 hours... but you need minutes.
3/4 x 60 minutes = 45 minutes
So the time is 5 hours and 45 minutes.
As a double check:
5 hours x 64 = 320 miles
3/4 hour x 64 = 48 miles
Altogether = 368 miles <-- check
So the answer is 5 hours and 45 minutes.
