Question

Giovanna can ride her bike 1.5 mi every 5 min.



How many miles can she ride her bike in 24 min?



miles

Answer 1

since you have the given distance and time, use the velocity formula
\[v = \frac{ d }{ t }\]
where v is the velocity
d is the distance
t is the time elapsed
so you'll have:
\[v = \frac{ 1.5mi }{ 5\min } =?\]
what'll you get?

Answer 2

after getting the velocity, you can now find the distance covered for elapsed time of 24 min
\[d = vt\]

Answer 3

so it's 24min
