Answer:
Explanation:
given: 6 yds / sec
find the time to ride 12 miles, so how many yards is 12 miles?
12 miles * 1760 yards / 1 mile = 21120 yds
d =r*t d=distance , r= rate , t = time
we know the distance and the rate .. so we can find the time
d/r = t
21120/6 = t ( in seconds)
3520 = t sec.
3520 sec * 1 min / 60 seconds ( to convert to minutes )
3520/60=t ( in minutes)
58 & 2/3 minutes
