A bicycle courier can cycle at a speed of 15 miles per hour. If the courier must travel a distance of 0.25 miles between stops, how many minutes will it take him?

1 minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of cycle = 15 miles per hour

Distance between stops = 0.25 miles

we will use formula for speed distance and time, where time is given by

time = distance / speed.

Plugging in the value of distance and speed, we have

time = 0.25/15 hours.

Since we need answer in minutes

1 hour has 60 minutes

hence,

time in minutes = (0.25/15) * 60 minutes = 1 minute

It will take 1 minute to travel between two stops having distance 0.25 miles.
