A cyclist rides her bike at a rate of 24 kilometers per hour. What is this rate in kilometers per minute? How many kilometers will the cyclist travel in 20 minutes? Do not round your answers.

As there are 60 minutes in an hour the rate per minute is 24/60 = 0.4 km/minute.

Distance travelled in 20 minutes = 20*0.4 = 8 km.
