Priya's neighbor has a dirt bike that can go 360 meters in 15 seconds. At this rate, how long would it take them to ride 3000 meters?

Answer :

Answer:

125 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this problem with the help of two methods

We can set up this question as a ratio problem:

360 meters__________15 seconds

3000 meters_________x seconds

[tex]x=\frac{3000*15}{360}=125[/tex]

We can also solve it as a rate problem and still yield the same answer:

[tex]\frac{360}{15}=\frac{3000}{x}[/tex]

x=125
