Algebra Difficulty 1.2 Junior Find the answer Canada

Mike rides his bicycle at a constant speed of 30 km/h. How many kilometres does Mike travel in 20 minutes?

Pick one

Solution

Since 1 hour equals 60 minutes, then 20 minutes equals $\frac{1}{3}$ of an hour.

Since Mike rides at 30 km/h, then in $\frac{1}{3}$ of an hour, he travels $\text{1 3 30 km = 10}$ km.
