Mary is riding her bicycle. She takes 3 hours to ride 37.5 kilometers. What is her speed?

563blackghost (563blackghost):

We would need to find the unit rate...in order to do this we would need to divide the total kilometers by hours.... \(\huge\bf{\frac{kilometers}{hours} \rightarrow \frac {37.5}{3}}\)

OpenStudy (brebre5564):

12.5....?

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

Correct

563blackghost (563blackghost):

I would agree. So it would be 12.5km/h

OpenStudy (dallascowboys88):

So It's 12.5mph

563blackghost (563blackghost):

not `mph` that is `miles per hour` it would be `kmph` `kilometers per hour`.
