How far will an aircraft travel in 7.5 minutes with a ground speed of 114 knots?
  1. 5 NM
  2. 14.50 NM
  3. 14.25 NM
  4. 20 NM
Explanation
Correct answer: C. 14.25 NM. Divide your speed by 60 to calculate the number of NM you will travel in one minute. Then multiply this number by the time elapsed. 114/60 minutes = 1.9 NM/ minute. 1.9NM times 7.5 minutes = 14.25 NM.
