Question

Jordan bikes at a speed of 8 2/3 mph. How many miles will he bike in:


45 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:390 miles

Explanation:

speed*time=distance (keep that in mind)

8 2/3 is also equal to 26/3

take that number and multiply that by 45 min

45*26/3

that equall 390 miles

(I tried my best, I might be wrong)

Answer 2

13/2

Explanation:

Keep in mind that speed*time=distance

ok so, if you convert 8 2/3 in to a improper fraction you'll get 26/3. Now we have to turn 45 minutes into a fraction so it's easier to multiply, that would be 45/60 because 1 hour has 60 minutes. Now, we would multiply 26/3 and 45/60 and get 78/12. Simplify that and get 13/2
