Answer:
10 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
We can convert the speed to km/h, and to do this, you simply have to find the amount Kevin rides in 1 hour. So,
24/2 = x/1
x = 12
So, now we see that Kevin rides at approximately 12 kmph. Now, instead of finding the distance, we need to find the hour at 120 km.
12/1 = 120/x
x = 10
