In order to find the distance traveled in one minute, you have to divide the distance he can ride his bike in an hour by the number of minutes in a hour. 6/60= .1 mile per minute. If he rides his bike for five minutes, then you would multiply the number of minutes biked by the distance traveled in a minute. .1*5=.5 mile, or [tex] \frac{1}{2} [/tex] mile.
