Q. 33 A bicyclist travels 621 miles in 32 hour. What is the average speed, in miles per hour, of the bicyclist?A 621B 665C 761D 943
Calculate average speed: To find average speed, divide total distance by total time. The distance is 621 miles which is 6.5 miles.
Find distance and time: The time is (32) hour. Now calculate the average speed: speed = distance / time = 6.5 miles / (32) hour.
Divide distance by time: To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal. So, multiply 6.5 by 23 to get the speed in miles per hour.
Multiply by reciprocal: Calculating gives us: 6.5×(23)=219.5=9.75 miles per hour.
Recalculate average speed: The average speed is 9.75 miles per hour, which is not an option in the multiple choice. There's a mistake, let's check the calculations again.
