Question

Luis rides his bicycle 34 miles in 15 minutes, or 14 hours, along the bike trail.
Assuming he rides at a constant rate, what is his speed, in miles per hour

Answer 1

Answer:

His speed in miles per hour is:

3Mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Depending on the speed you take in miles per minute when passing it to miles per hour, you should consider the time it takes you to travel a mile.

Now: If 3/4 of a mile is 0.75 miles.

And it takes 15 minutes, so how long does it take 1 mile?

It is a rule of three.

0.75 miles = 15 minutes

1 mile = X

Clearing X would give :

X = 15 * 1 / 0.75

X = 20 minutes takes a mile to travel

Now if it goes to 1Mpm how much is in Mph?

If it takes 20 minutes to travel 1 mile, how many travels in 60 minutes (1 hour)

Again rule of 3.

20 minutes = 1 mile

60 minutes = X

Clearing X would give:

X = 60/20

X = 3 miles per hour.

Luis rides 3 miles per hour.
