Answer:

20 miles

Explanation:

We are given that

Person traveled total distance by bike=2 1/2 miles

Person traveled total distance by bike==
2+(1)/(2)=2.5miles

Time taken by person ,t=1/8 hour

We have to find the distance traveled by person bike in an hour.

We know that

Rate==
(Distance)/(time)

Using the formula

Rate=
(2.5)/((1)/(8))miles/hr

Rate=20mph

In 1 hour person bike traveled distance=20 miles
