Question

Sheila can ride her bicycle 6000 meters in 15 minutes. How far can she ride in 2 minutes?

Answer 1

Sheila can ride her bicycle 6000 meters in 15 minutes. 
Forming that into a ratio, that will be 6000 : 15

Doing the proportion for 2  minutes.
6000 : 15 = X : 2

Doing the computation.
6000 / 15 = X / 2
15X = 2 * 6000
15X = 12000
X = 800

So Sheila covered a total of 800 meters in 2 minutes.
