To solve this, we'll use the formula distance=rate*time. There's just one problem here: we need all of our time to be in the same units. Let's convert the 15 minutes into hours:
[tex]15min*\frac{1hour}{60min}=0.25hr[/tex]

Then we just use the formula:
[tex]d=182*0.25[/tex]

15 minutes = 15/60 = 0.25 hrs + the 3 hrs = 3.25 hrs

182 / 3.25 = 56 miles per hr
