Becky bikes 6 miles in 24 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she bike in 60 minutes?

10 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

6 in 24 min 6÷24=4

60÷6 =10

Here's one approach:

(6 miles)/(24 minutes) = (x miles)/(60 minutes)

6/24 = x/60

6*60 = 24*x

360 = 24x

24x = 360

x = 360/24

x = 15

She travels 15 miles in 60 minutes (aka 1 hour). So we can say her speed is 15 mph.

Here's another approach:

If she travels 6 miles in 24 minutes, then her unit rate is distance/time = 6/24 = 1/4 = 0.25 miles per minute.

So if she travels for 60 minutes, then she'll cover a distance of 60*0.25 = 15 miles

look a the sides they are perpendicular
