Sue walked from her home to her school at a constant rate of 2 miles per hour, picked up her bicycle and rode back at a constant rate of 10 miles per hour. If the round trip took 1.5 hours, how far is the school from Sue’s home?

10mi/hr * 1/4 hr = 10/4 mi or 2.5 miles is the distance the school is from home

Hope this helps
