Question

In 10 seconds, Jake travels 550 feet on his bike. At this speed. How many fert can he travel in 1 minute.

Answer 1

We can find out how many feet can Jake travel using a rule of three:

`\begin{gathered} 10s\rightarrow550ft \\ 60s\rightarrow xft \\ \Rightarrow x=(60\cdot550)/(10)=3300 \\ x=3300ft \end{gathered}`

therefore, Jake can travel 3300ft in 1 minute
