If it takes Julian 1/2 hour to walk 2 miles, we can calculate his walking speed and see how this might work into his spare time.
-
Walking Speed Calculation:
- To find his speed, we can convert the time from half an hour to hours: \[ \frac{1}{2} \text{ hour} = 0.5 \text{ hours} \]
- Speed equals distance divided by time. So: \[ \text{Speed} = \frac{2 \text{ miles}}{0.5 \text{ hours}} = 4 \text{ miles per hour} \]
-
Walking in Spare Time:
- If Julian wishes to walk during his spare time, we would need to know how much spare time he has available to determine how far he can walk.
For example:
-
If Julian has 1 hour of spare time, he can walk: \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} = 4 \text{ miles per hour} \times 1 \text{ hour} = 4 \text{ miles} \]
-
If he has 2 hours, he can walk: \[ \text{Distance} = 4 \text{ miles per hour} \times 2 \text{ hours} = 8 \text{ miles} \]
If you provide how much spare time he has, I can help you calculate how far he can walk in that time!
