Nicole rides her bike 24 miles in 2 hours. Drag and drop a rate or quantity from the box to each blank to calculate her rate in meters per minute
Rate: 24 miles/2 hours
Quantity: 24 miles, 2 hours
To calculate her rate in meters per minute, you would need to convert the given quantity to meters and minutes. The conversion rate is needed to convert miles to meters and hours to minutes.
Since 1 mile is approximately equal to 1609 meters and there are 60 minutes in 1 hour:
24 miles x 1609 meters/1 mile = 38,616 meters
2 hours x 60 minutes/1 hour = 120 minutes
Therefore, her rate in meters per minute can be calculated as:
38,616 meters/120 minutes
To calculate Nicole's rate in meters per minute, we need to convert the distance from miles to meters and the time from hours to minutes.
Distance Conversion:
1 mile = 1609.34 meters
So, 24 miles = 24 * 1609.34 meters
Time Conversion:
1 hour = 60 minutes
So, 2 hours = 2 * 60 minutes
Now, let's calculate the rate in meters per minute.
24 miles * 1609.34 meters/mile ÷ 2 hours * 60 minutes/hour = (24 * 1609.34) ÷ (2 * 60) meters/minute
Now, we just need to calculate the expression in the parentheses to get the final answer.
Therefore, her rate is:
(24 * 1609.34) ÷ (2 * 60) meters/minute = 77123.2 ÷ 120 meters/minute
So, Nicole's rate is approximately 642.69 meters per minute.
To calculate Nicole's rate in meters per minute, we need to convert the given information into appropriate units.
One mile is equal to 1609.34 meters, and one hour is equal to 60 minutes.
We can use these conversion factors to convert the given information as follows:
24 miles * 1609.34 meters/mile = 38609.36 meters
2 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 120 minutes
To find Nicole's rate in meters per minute, we divide the distance by the time:
38609.36 meters ÷ 120 minutes = 321.78 meters/minute
Therefore, Nicole's rate is approximately 321.78 meters per minute.
