A family is driving 600 miles. Assuming they stop to get gas 3 times and eat 2 times, how many hours will it take them to reach their destination? How would you estimate the time?

Lets assume that they are driving at an average of 70mph, and getting gas takes 10 minutes, and stopping to eat takes 30.

t=d/s

t=600/70
t=8.57 

Stopping to eat twice is 30 x 2 = 60 (another hour)

and Gas is 10 x 3 = 30 minutes (0.5 hours)

Total time is,

8.57+1+0.5 =10.07

So the trip will take approx 10.7 hours total.

(This is using my assumptions, from my experience!)
