Given the statement:

A subway car passes 3 stations every 10 minutes.

Determine how many stations will the subway car pass in one hour.

Solution:

Since for every 10 minutes the car passes 3 stations, we can simply multiply 3 stations by 6 since there are six 10 minutes in 1 hour.

= (3)(6)

= 18 stations

Final answer:

= 18 stations
