1. The distance Nicole rides her bike is 24 miles
2. The time it takes her to ride is 2 hours

To calculate her rate in meters per minute, we need to convert the given information to metric units.

1 mile is equal to 1609.34 meters. (Conversion factor: 1 mile = 1609.34 meters)

To convert the distance from miles to meters:
24 miles x 1609.34 meters/mile = 38,624.16 meters

1 hour is equal to 60 minutes. (Conversion factor: 1 hour = 60 minutes)

To convert the time from hours to minutes:
2 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 120 minutes

Now, we can calculate her rate in meters per minute:

38,624.16 meters / 120 minutes = 321.87 meters per minute

Therefore, Nicole rides at a rate of approximately 321.87 meters per minute.
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, m/ min

24miles/ 2hours x x x

.
100 m/ 1km
60 min/ 1hr
1km /1,000 m
1mile/1.6 km
1hr/60 min
1km/100 m
1.6km/ 1mile
1,000m/1km
24 miles/ 2 hours x 1 mile/1.6 km x 1.6 km/1mile x 1,000 m/1km x 60 minutes/ 1 hour

Simplify the expression by canceling out the units:

24 miles/ 2 hours = 12 miles/hour
1 mile/1.6 km = 0.625 miles/ km
1.6 km/1mile = 1 km/0.625 miles
1,000 m/1km = 1,000 m/ (1 km/0.625 miles) = 625 miles/ km
60 minutes/ 1 hour = 60 minutes/hour

Final expression:
12 miles/hour x 0.625 miles/ km x 625 miles/ km x 1,000 m/1km x 60 minutes/hour

Simplify the expression:

12 x 0.625 x 625 x 1,000 x 60 = 281,250,000

Therefore, Nicole rides at a rate of approximately 281,250,000 meters per minute.
