Here is the answer to the given question above. Given that cyclist finished 3/4 with their ride and reached an 18 kilometer mark, therefore, the distance of their ride would be 24 kilometers. 3/4 of 24 is 18, which makes it 3/4 of their total distance. Hope this answers your question.

Answer:

the ride was 24 km long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us suppose the ride was x km long.

Now, it has been given that Cyclist were 3/4 finished with their ride when they reached the 18 kilometer mark.

It means we have the equation

[tex]\frac{3}{4}x=18[/tex]

Multiply both sides by 4

[tex]3x=72[/tex]

Now, divide both sides by 3

[tex]x=\frac{72}{3}\\\\x=24[/tex]

Thus, the ride was 24 km long.
