The distance between the two points is 82.8 km. A cyclist and a lorry drove out of these points in one direction at the same time, with the cyclist moving in front. 6 hours after the start of the movement, the truck caught up with the cyclist if the speed of the truck was 27.2 km / h.

1. Determine what distance the truck traveled in 6 hours:
27.2 x 6 = 163.2 km;
2. Determine what distance the cyclist covered in 6 hours:
163.2 – 82.8 = 80.4 km;
3. Determine with what speed the cyclist was moving:
80.4: 6 = 13.4 km / h.
Answer: the cyclist’s speed is 13.4 km / h.
