Riding with the wind at her back, a cyclist takes an hour less time to cover 80 miles than without any wind. Riding with the wind increases the cyclist's speed by 2 miles per hour. What is her speed when riding with the wind?

Answer:

41 MPH

Explanation:

Let's assume the original speed with or without, is around 82 miles, within 2 hours.

So in this case, it'd be half the miles, half the hours!
