Question

Jasmine finished the bike trail in 2.5 hours at an average rate of 2.5 miles per hour.Lucy biked the same trail at a rate of 6 1/5 mile per hour.How long did it take lucy to bike the trail?

Answer 1

2.5 hours at a rate of 2.5 miles per hour = 2.5 * 2.5 = 6.25 miles

the trail was 6.25 miles long

Lucy rode at 6 1/5 mile per hour

so 6.25 / 6 1/5 = 1.008 = 1.01 hours
