3x-2=16. Add two to the right side.
3x=16+2. So now you have 3x=18. You then have to divide both sides by 3, which is 6. To check your work, replace x with 6.
3(6)-2=16
18-2=16

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, like in this case, the direct rule of three can be applied as follow:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then x=\frac{c*b}{a}

First, the simple rule of three can be applied in the following way: if 1 minute equals 60 seconds, 15 minutes equals how many seconds?

seconds=\frac{15 minutes*60 seconds}{1 minute}

seconds= 900

So now you can apply the following rule of three: if in 25 seconds you travel 0.1 miles, in 900 seconds how many miles do you travel?

distance=\frac{900 seconds*0.1 miles }{25 seconds}

distance= 3.6 miles

If you then ride hard for 12 miles, the total distance traveled will be the sum of both:

3.6 miles + 12 miles = 15.6 miles

<u><em>The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.</em></u>
