Answer: 602 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of speed is calculated by the formula;

= Distance / Time

You need to convert the time into hours. Time is 5 hours 30 mins.

Convert those minutes to hours:

1 hour is 60 minutes so 30 minutes would be:

= 30 / 60

= 0.5 hours

Total time = 5 hours + 0.5 hours

= 5.5 hours

Now go back to speed equation:

Speed = 3,311 / 5.5

= 602 miles
