Question

Tyler is riding his bike from his house to the store, which is 4 miles away. Tyler gets to the store 18 min after he leaves his house. Find tylers speed in miles per minute

Answer 1

Bev,

You can use the distance=rate x time formula to solve this question.

The distance is 4 miles

The time is 18 minutes

The rate is what we need to figure out.

4=18r

4/18=r

.22=r
