Question

A cyclist travels 56 miles in 4 hours. Traveling at the same rate, how many miles will he travel in 7 hours?

Answer 1

98 Miles

Explanation:

If a cyclist travels 56 miles in 4 hours. We can solve for miles traveled per hour by using the information given.

56 miles/ 4 hours = 17 miles per hour

From here since we found that the cyclist travels 17 miles per hour.

(1 hour = 17 miles)

We can multiply 17 miles per hour by the hours the cyclists will travel.

so,

17 miles per hour x 7 hours = 98 miles

Answer 2

98 miles in 7 hours

Explanation:

Given - Cyclist travels 56 miles in 4 hours

so in hour the cyclist travels = 56/4 = 14 miles

So travelling at the same rate the cyclist can travel in 7 hours = 7 * 14 = 98 miles
