Question

Clare is cycling at a speed of 12 miles per hour. If she starts at a position chosen as zero, what will her position be after 45 minutes?

Answer 1

45 minutes is 3/4 of an hour, so find 3/4 of 12. 
Divide 12 by 4 to get 1/4 of 12. That is 3. 
3/4 is 3 of those, so multiply it by 3 to get 9.
So, she will have biked 9 miles. 
Hope this helps!

Answer 2

Answer:

After 45 minutes Clare will be at 9 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Clare is cycling at a speed of 12 miles per hour.

Her starting position is at zero.

With the same speed distance traveled in 45 minutes or $\frac{45}{60}$ hours will be = Speed × Time

= 12 × $\frac{45}{60}$

= $\frac{45}{5}$

= 9 miles

Therefore, after 45 minutes Clare will be at 9 miles.
