Answer:

30 miles

Explanation:

Alr so-

You want first divide 3 by 3/5 since well- the question asks how many does he ride in 3 hours

Of course, you'll get the answer 5

Now you want to grab the 6 miles Jake could ride in 3/5 hours and put it in a new equation.

(you'll also want to take the 5 you got from the last equation)

You want to multiply both 6 and 5 which is 30

BOOM!

IN CONCLUSION-

the answer is 30 miles
