Question

Jamal travels 450 feet in 10 seconds on his bicycle. At this rate, how many feet can he travel in one minute?

Answer 1

Given:

The distance traveled in 10 seconds is 450 feet.

To find the distance traveled in 1 minute:

In 10 seconds, the distance is 450 feet.

In 20 seconds the distance will be,

`450*2=900\text{ fe}et`

In 30 seconds the distance will be,

`450*3=1350\text{ fe}et`

In 40 seconds the distance will be,

`450*4=1800\text{ fe}et`

In 50 seconds the distance will be,

`450*5=2250\text{ fe}et`

In 60 seconds the distance will be,

`450*6=2700\text{ fe}et`

Hence, the distance traveled in 1 minute is 2700 feet.

So, the table becomes,
