Final answer:

Jack will receive £3.65 if he cycles 2.19 km in total for the sponsored cycle.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of money Jack will receive, we need to calculate the number of 0.6 km intervals he cycled. 2.19 km divided by 0.6 km gives us 3.65 intervals. Since he is being sponsored at a rate of £1 per 0.6 km, we can multiply 3.65 by £1 to find that he will receive £3.65 in total.

Answer: 3,65

Step-by-step explanation: Money Received=(Total Distance Cycled/ Rate per 0.6 km)* Sponsorship Rate

Money Received=(2.19km/0.6 km) *£1

Money Received=(3.65)*£1

Money Received=£3.65

Jack will receive £3.65 for cycling 2.19 km in total
