Kevin rode 24 km in 2 hours. At that rate, how long would it take him to ride 120 km?

Answer:

10 hours

Explanation:

We can convert the speed to km/h, and to do this, you simply have to find the amount Kevin rides in 1 hour. So,

24/2 = x/1

x = 12

So, now we see that Kevin rides at approximately 12 kmph. Now, instead of finding the distance, we need to find the hour at 120 km.

12/1 = 120/x

x = 10
