Question

How long will it take her to travel 72 miles? use the unit ratio to solve the following problem.

Answer 1

Answer:

It will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Noshwa is completing the bike portion of a triathlon, assuming that she travels 40 miles in 2.5 hours, to determine how long will it take her to travel 72 miles, the following calculation must be performed:

40 = 2.5

72 = X

72 x 2.5 / 50 = X

180/50 = X

3.6 = X

1 = 60

0.6 = X

0.6 x 60 = X

36 = X

Therefore, it will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
