Michael's riding time is 27/5 minutes. To find this we can use a proportion. We know that Jacob rides for 45 minutes, and that Michael rides 2 3/5 times as long as Jacob. Therefore, we set up the proportion: 45/2 3/5 = x/27/5 We can then cross-multiply and solve for x to find the answer of 27/5 minutes.
