Question

Mila has biked 10 miles in 1.5 hours if Mila continues at the same rate,how many miles will she bike in 3 and a 1/2 hours?

Answer 1

Mike biked 10 miles in 1.5 hours. Mila bikes at the same rate too.

Therefore, she will bike x miles in 3.5 hours

(10/1.5) = (x/3.5)

You cross multiply

1.5x = 10 x 3.5

1.5x = 35

x = 35/1.5

x = 23 miles (approximately)

I hope this helps
