Answer:
5 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the runner travel at x miles an hour , then the cyclist travels at 5/ 3 * x
= 5/3 x miles an hour.
So we have the equation
5/3 x - x = 2 ( since the cyclist was travelling at 2 mph faster).,
2/3 x = 2
x = 3/2 * 2 = 3 mph.
So the cyclists speed was 3 * 5/3
= 5 mph.
Answer:
if 1/6 of a roll of paper covers 1/4 of a wall, this means that we will need 4/6 of a roll to cover a whole wall, now the question is asking how many rolls will we need to cover 4 walls, we already know that it takes 4/6 to fill one wall so if we add 4/6+4/6+4/6+4/6 we will get 16/6 or 2 4/6
we will need 16/6 or 2 4/6 of rolls of paper to cover 4 walls
