Question: 556

10. If Tino rides his bike at a steady speed of 9 miles per hour, how far will he ride in 3 hours 40 minutes?

  • A. 27 miles
  • B. 33 miles
  • C. 36 miles
  • D. 39 miles

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

B is correct. Use the formula r × t = d where r = rate, t = time, and d = distance.

3 hours 40 minutes = 3⅔ hours.

r × t = d

9 × 3⅔ = 33 miles
