David & Brad are competing in a 20-mile bicycle race. David rides 6.2 miles in 1/4 hour. Brad rides 11.9 miles in 1/2 hour. If both riders continue at the same average speed, who will finish first? Explain how you know

Respuesta :

David will finish first, because if you divide Brad's miles by 2 to his miles in a 1/4 of an hour are 5.95 miles. This means David went 6.2 miles in the same time that Brad went 5.95. Therefore, David will finish first.
