Calculate the distance she would make if she continued driving for exactly one hour (time unit of the speed we want):

[tex]\frac{211}{2} \mbox{miles} \leftrightarrow \frac{2}{3} \mbox{hr}\\\frac{211}{2} \cdot \frac{3}{2} \mbox{miles} \leftrightarrow 1 \mbox {hr}\\\\158.25 \mbox{miles} \leftrightarrow 1 \mbox{hr}[/tex]

the speed is now distance / (unit of time)

speed = 158.25 miles / 1 hr = 158.25 mph

(that is some speedy Victoria)
