On a 3-hour bike nde, Rod averaged 5 miles per hour. Write a division equation that could be used to find the lotal digtance, of, Rod biked.

To find the total distance Rod biked, you can use the relationship between distance, speed, and time. The formula that connects these three is: \[ \text{Distance} = \text{Speed} \times \text{Time} \] However, to express this as a **division equation**, you can rearrange the formula to solve for distance divided by time: \[ \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} = \text{Speed} \] Given: - Speed (\( S \)) = 5 miles per hour - Time (\( T \)) = 3 hours Substitute the known values into the division equation: \[ \frac{D}{3} = 5 \] Where: - \( D \) is the total distance Rod biked. **Final Division Equation:** \[ \frac{D}{3} = 5 \] To solve for \( D \), you would multiply both sides by 3: \[ D = 5 \times 3 \] \[ D = 15 \text{ miles} \] So, Rod biked a total of **15 miles**. **Answer:** An example is total distance divided by 3 equals 5, that is Distance ⁄ 3 = 5
