Ryan took 15 min to cycle from his home to a playground for his morning exercise. After the exercise, he took 45 min to walk the same route home. The difference between his cycling and walking speed was 56 km/h. How far was Ryan’s home from the playground?
45 : 15
3 : 1

Walking speed : Cycling speed 
1 : 3 

The distance between Joe's home and the park was the same.

The travel time is inversely related to the speed.
When speed increases, the travel time decreases.

Difference in the the walking speed and cycling speed
= 3 u - 1 u
= 2 u

2 u = 56

1 u = 56 ÷ 2 = 28

Ryan's walking speed = 28 km/h

60 min = 1 h
1 min = ¹₆₀ h
45 min = ⁴⁵₆₀ h = ³₄ h

Distance between Ryan's home and the playground
= ³₄ x 28 
= 21 km

Answer(s): 21 km
