Answer: First.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the speed of the first airplane:

2800 ÷ 5 = 560 (miles per hour)

Let's find the speed of the second plane:

3885 ÷ 7 = 555 (miles per hour)

Thus, the first plane flies faster than the second.

The first plane is faster.


The first plane travels at 560 miles per hour. The comparisons are 2 hours apart. Add 560 2 times to 2800 and you get 3,920 which is greater than 3,885, the original number of MPH for the second plane.


Meaning the first plane is faster.
