IF JOE RIDES SOUTH ON HIS BIKE IN A STRAIGHT LINE FORE 15 MIN WITH AN AVERAGE SPEED OF 12.5KM/H, HOW FAR HAS HE RIDDEN?

3.9k's

14 m south

To find out how far Joe has ridden, we can use the formula: distance = speed x time.

In this case, Joe's speed is 12.5 km/h, and he rides for 15 minutes.
However, we need to convert the time from minutes to hours since the speed is in km/h. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so 15 minutes is equal to 15/60 = 0.25 hours.

Now we can calculate the distance:
distance = 12.5 km/h x 0.25 hours = 3.125 km.

Therefore, Joe has ridden a distance of 3.125 km.
