Gary is exercising on the stationary bike in his garage. He bikes 3.5 miles in 1/4 of an hour. How many miles could Gary bike in 3/4 of an hour at the same speed?

Respuesta :

Given:

Gary bikes 3.5 miles in [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] of an hour.

To find:

The distance covered by Gary in [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of an hour at the same speed.

Solution:

We have,

Distance covered in [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] of an hour = 3.5 miles

Distance covered in [tex]1[/tex] hour [tex]=4\times 3.5[/tex] miles

Distance covered in [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of an hour [tex]=\dfrac{3}{4}\times 4\times 3.5[/tex] miles

                                                       [tex]=3\times 3.5[/tex] miles

                                                       [tex]=10.5[/tex] miles

Therefore, Gary could travel 10.5 miles in [tex]\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex] of an hour.
