Mike rides his motorcycle at an average speed of 20 meters/ seconds for 500 secs, how far did he ride?

You can do this by arranging the numbers with a simple method.

 

20 m / 1 sec = x m / 500 sec

 

You can now cross multiply (multiply each numerator by the other fraction's denominator).

 

20 * 500 = 10,000

 

1 * x = x

 

x = 10,000

 

This means that in 500 seconds, Mike can ride his motorcycle 10,000 meters!

 

That's a really fast motorcycle, in my opinion!

P.S. Sorry if I misunderstood the question. I think you made a typo and forgot to type how many seconds it takes for Mike to ride 20 m!
