The romans marched 500 meters in 4 hours. For the next 4 hours they tripled their pace. What was the total distance traveled by the Romans in 8 hours?

Respuesta :

Distance traveled during the first 4 hours:  500 m  Note that the rate here was 125 m/hr.

Distance traveled during the next four hours:  3(125 m/hr)(4 hr) = 375 m

Total distance traveled:  500 m + 375 m = 875 m
