Question

Karl rides his bicycle 120 feet in 10 seconds. How many feet does he ride in 1 minute

Answer 1

A minute is 6 times as long as 10 seconds, so we expect Karl will ride 6 times as far.

$\dfrac{120\,ft}{10\,s}=\dfrac{120\,ft}{10\,s}\cdot\dfrac{60\,s}{1\,min}=\dfrac{720\,ft}{1\,min}$

Karl rides 720 ft in 1 minute.

Answer 2

Answer:

720

Step-by-step explanation:

120/10 to find his feet per second which is 12 feet per second

12*60

since there are 60 seconds in a minute

= 720
