Answer:

.4 hours or 24 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use proprtions to solve this problem.  Put distance over time

65 miles      26 miles

------------- = -----------

1 hour          x hours

Using cross products

65x = 26

Divide by 65

65x/65 = 26/65

x = .4 hours

or we can change to minutes

.4 hours * 60 minutes/ 1 hour = 24 minutes
