Question

Ashley can ride her bicycle 15 miles in 2 hours. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, and there are 1,760 yards in 1 mile. How many yards does Ashley travel each minute?

Answer 1

Answer:

About 30 if you want it really specific 29.3

Take 1,760 and divide by 60 which is 29.3

Answer 2

15 miles in 2 hours so divide both by two and it’s 7.5 miles in 1 hour
7.5 miles multiply 1760 yards is 13200
13200 yards in 1 hour
Divide 13200 by 60 and you get 220
Answer: Ashley travels 220 yards per minute
