Answer:
It will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
Explanation:
Since Noshwa is completing the bike portion of a triathlon, assuming that she travels 40 miles in 2.5 hours, to determine how long will it take her to travel 72 miles, the following calculation must be performed:
40 = 2.5
72 = X
72 x 2.5 / 50 = X
180/50 = X
3.6 = X
1 = 60
0.6 = X
0.6 x 60 = X
36 = X
Therefore, it will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
