Question

Andrew is riding his bike. He biked a distance of 14 miles at a rate of 7 miles per hour. Using the distance formula, d = rt, solve for Andrew's time in minutes

Answer 1

d = rt ( d = distance, r = rate (speed) and t = time)

14  = 7t

Divide both sides by 7:

t = 14/7

t = 2 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes.

2 hours x 60 = 120 minutes total.

Answer 2

Based on the distance Andrew went and the rate at which he went, Andrew's time in minutes was 120 minutes.

The distance formula is:

Distance = Rate x Time

Andrew's time is therefore:

14 = 7 x Time

Time = 14 / 7

= 2 hours

In minutes this is:

= 2 x 60 minutes per hour

= 120 minutes

In conclusion, Andrew covered that distance in 120 minutes.
