Grady rides his bike 60% faster than his little brother Noah. If Grady rides 12 miles further than Noah in two hours, how fast does Noah ride?

Let  r  represent the rate at which Noah rides.

Then  1.6r  represents the rate at which Grady rides.

 

Time  =  2 hours

 

Distance  =  rate x time

 

Distance of Grady  =  Distance of Noah + 12 miles

       1.6r x 2            =            r x 2            + 12

                       3.2r  =  2r + 12

                       1.2r  =  12

                            r  =  10

 

Noah rides at the rate of 10 miles per hour.
