Question

Joseph biked 36 miles in 3 hours. At this same rate, what is the total number of miles Joseph could bike in 5 hours? (somebody please help me-)

Answer 1

If he went 36 miles in 3 hours, he rode at a speed of 12 miles per hour (36/3=12). So if he rode his bike at that same speed for 5 hours he would go 60 miles (12x5=60).
