Bexy walks 5 miles from point A to point B in one hour, then bicycles back to point A along the same route at 15 miles per hour. Ben makes the same round trip, but does so at half of Bexy’s average speed. How many minutes does Ben spend on his round trip?	Choose the correct choice from the following answers.
A) 40	B) 80	C) 120	D) 160	E) 180
Bexy walks 5 miles from point A to point B in one hour, then bicycles back to point A along the same route at 15 miles per hour. Ben makes the same round trip, but does so at half of Bexy’s average speed. How many minutes does Ben spend on his round trip?   Average speed = total distance/total time   We know the total distance is 5+5 (going from A to B then from B to A)   Time = distance/speed   Time = 5/15   Time = 1/3 hour   Average speed = (10)/(1hr + 1/3hr)   Average speed (Bexi) = 10 / 1.33   Therefore, if Ben's average speed is 1/2 of Bexi's then his speed = 10/2.66.   This means it took him 2.66 hours to cover the same 10 miles Bexi did. 2.66 hours = roughly 160 minutes.   Answer: D). 160
