If Sheila can ride her bike 6000 meters in 15 minutes, then you can divide
6000 ÷ 15 to find how far she can ride in 1 minute.

6000 ÷ 15 = 400.

So, Sheila can ride her bike 400 meters in 1 minute.
To find how many meters she can ride in 2 minutes, multiply 400 by 2.

400 x 2 = 800.

Sheila can ride her bicycle 800 meters in 2 minutes.
