Answer:
The total distance cycled by Jason in 3 hours were 20 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total distance cycled in 3 hours, first we have to calculate the miles cycled in the first 2 hours, this is:

In the first 2 hours Jason cycled 15 miles, now we can apply the distance cycled in the 3rd hour:

The total distance cycled by Jason in 3 hours were 20 miles.
7 1/2 * 2 = 15
The 3rd hour was 1/4 of the total distance in 3 hours.
1/4 = 0.25 as a decimal, and 25% as a percent.
15 (0.25) = 3.75
15 + 3.75 = 18.75
0.75 = 3/4 as a fraction.
So, he cycled 18 3/4 miles in 3 hours.
I hope this helps, and I am sorry if I get this question wrong. (which is in all likelihood)
