Paige rides her bike around town. She can ride one half of a mile in 1 30 ith of an hour. If she continues to ride at the same pace, how many miles could she travel in 1 hour?

Respuesta :

She could travel 15 miles in an hour

We have been given that Paige can ride one half of a mile in 1/30 th of an hour. And we have to found the distance traveled in 1 hour if she continues to ride at the same pace.

Let d be the distance traveled in 1 hour.

In 1/30 th of an hour distance traveled is 0.5 mile

Hence, in 1 hour the distance traveled is given by

[tex]d=\frac{0.3}{1/30} \\ \\ d=0.5\times 30\\ \\ d=15[/tex]

Therefore, she will travel 15 miles.
