Q. Hiro biked

52

miles in

4

hours. What was his speed in miles per hour?

Step $1$ : Determine the formula: To find Hiro's speed in miles per hour, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the total time taken. The formula for speed is $\text{speed} = \frac{\text{distance}}{\text{time}}$ .
Step $2$ : Calculate the distance and time: Hiro biked $52$ miles in $4$ hours. Using the formula, we calculate his speed as $\frac{52 \text{ miles}}{4 \text{ hours}}$ .
Step $3$ : Divide the distance by the time: Performing the division, we get $52 \div 4 = 13$ .
Step $4$ : Calculate the speed: Therefore, Hiro's speed was $13$ miles per hour.
