A flight averages 460 mph. The return flight averages 500 mph due to tailwind. The total flying time is 4.8 hours how long is each flight

We know that time is distance over velocity, that is:

time = distance / velocity

t = d / v

Now from the given:

d / 460 + d / 500 = 4.8

Now we can find for d:

d = 4.8 / [1/460 + 1/500]

d = 1150 miles

So the time of each flight is:

flight = 1150 / 460 = 2.5 hours

return flight = 1150 / 500 = 2.3 hours
