If a bike race covers 120 mi over 6 days and the cyclists ride the same distance each day, how many miles does each cyclist ride each day?

Well what you have to do is divide 120 miles by 6
6 goes to 12, 2 times and leaves of 0
So you had 0 next to 2
The answer will be 20 miles each day.
TO check your answer. you can multiply
20 x 6 and it will equal 120 miles

120 miles over 6 days is written as 120/6
120 divided by 6 is 20
therefore the cyclists road 20 miles each day
