A cyclist is travelling on his bike. If he has been travelling for 7 1/2 hours at 15 mph, how much distance has he travelled? How much distance would have he travelled if he continued to ride his bike at 15 mph but for 8 hours? Maths can help us find out many things including speed, distance and time and it could be found anywhere we go. (Answer 1: 112.5 miles) (Answer 2 : 120 miles)
