If dr. suzuki rides his bike to his office, he averages 9 miles per hour. if he drives his car, he averages 27 miles per hour. his time driving is one third hour less than his time bicycling. how far is his office?

Speed
Riding speed = 9 mph
Driving speed = 27 mph

Time
If x hours is the time taken when riding, (x - 1/3) hours  is the time taken when driving.

Distance in both instances is the same, D= Speed * time

Therefore,
9*x = 27(x-1/3)
9x = 27x - 27/2
9x = 27x - 9
(9-27)x = -9
-18x = -9
x = 9/18 = 1/2 hours

Distance, D = 1/2 *9 = 4.5 miles
