PLEASE HELP! A race consists of three parts: a long run, biking, and a short run. The biking portion is 6 km longer than the long run and the short run is two-thirds the distance of the long run. The entire race is 56 km long. How long is the biking portion? Answer should be to 2 decimal places.

Only put the numerical answer and the units. Ex. 5.87km

A sprint-distance triathlon is often the best way for a new triathlete to have positive experience in their first event. A typical sprint distance event consists of 400 to 500 yards (or meters) of swimming, 12 to 15 miles of cycling and typically a 3.1-mile run. This distance makes completing the event quite manageable for fit and soon-to-be fit athletes.
