Youseff lives x blocks from his office. It takes him 1 minute per block to walk to work and 20 seconds per block to ride his bike to work. It is takes him exactly 14 minutes more to walk to work than to ride his bike to work, then x equals? Answers.
A) 4  B) 7  C) 10  D) 15  E) 21

Rationale: please follow posting guidelines , link is in my signatures . as for your question , x / 60 = blocks / time / block = block ^ 2 / time . this is not what you want . you are given x blocks and 60 seconds per block . thus you need to put it as 60 * x to give you units of seconds as you are equating this to 840 ( which is time in seconds . ) . thus the correct equation is : 60 * x - 20 * x = 840 - - - - > 40 x = 840 - > x = 21 . option e
Answer: E
