Question

At 10:00 AM., Gavin rented a mountain bike. He returned the bike at 4:00 PM. He biked for 30 miles. He paid $126.00 for the rental. Find Gavin's average speed, In miles per hour.

Answer 1

I believe the top question was already answered. The second question uses the formula

 

distance=rate * time

 

Since you already have the distance (30 miles) and the time (6 hours), then the formula will look like this

 

rate = distance / time

 

Your rate will be an average.
