Question

Sam can ride his bike 4.2 kilometers in 6 minutes. Amanda can ride her bike 3.2 kilometers in 8 minutes. Jesse can ride his bike 3.0 kilometers in 5 minutes.

Which rider might go farther in 1 minute?

Answer 1

Sam

Explanation:

Find all of their speeds to find how far they will go in 1 minute, by dividing the number of kilometers by the number of minutes:

Sam

4.2/6

= 0.7 km/min

Amanda

3.2/8

= 0.4 km/min

Jesse

3/5

= 0.6 km/min

Since 0.7 is the greatest number, that means Sam is the rider that will go the farthest in one minute.
