Carlos traveled at an average speed of 70 miles per hour for 2.5 hours and then traveled at an average speed of 80 miles per hour for 3.5 hours. What was the total distance in miles that Carlos traveled during that time?
To find the total distance traveled, we need to find the distance traveled at each speed and then add them together. The distance traveled at 70 miles per hour is 70 miles/hour × 2.5 hours = 175 miles. The distance traveled at 80 miles per hour is 80 miles/hour × 3.5 hours = 280 miles. Therefore, the total distance traveled is 175 miles + 280 miles = <<175+280=455>>455 miles. Therefore, the answer is 455.
