Hi, I need help with this question.
Here's the question:
Colette can't wait to read the newest issue of her favorite comic, The Notorious Ninja, so she plans to bike 3 miles to the comic book store after school. If Colette can usually bike 12 miles in an hour, how many minutes will it take her to get there?

Respuesta :

15 minutes. So it takes her one hour, which is 60 minutes, to go 12 miles. So 12 divided by 3 is 4, so take 60 divided by 4 and you get 15.

Answer:

15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate * time

3 miles = 12 miles / hour * time

Divide each side by 12

3/12 = time ( in hours)

1/4 hour

1/4 hour * 60 minutes / hour

15 minutes
