Question

Jason and Nick were biking at a constant speed of 10 seconds, Jason biked 30 meters and Nick biked 45 meters. Who was biking at a faster rate?

Answer 1

Nick

Explanation:

Find their rates by dividing the number of meters they biked by 10:

Jason:

30/10

= 3 meters/sec

Nick:

45/10

= 4.5 meters/sec

So, since 4.5 is bigger than 3, Nick was biking at a faster rate.
