Question

Kevin is riding his bike to work. He can bike 6 1/2 kilometers in 3/5 of an hour. How many kilometers can Kevin bike in one hour?

Answer 1

If Kevin can ride 13/2 kilometers in 3/5 of an hour then he can ride 13/6 in 1/5 of an hour. If you multiply 1/5 of an hour by 5 you would get an hour which would also be 5x the distance as 13/6. Kevin can bike 65/6 or 10 and 5/6 kilometers in an hour.
